This time she is on summer vacation, prior to entering the seventh grade, and while visiting her aunt who lives in a house on the ocean in Sandy Beach Island, New Jersey, there is a major theft in a New York City museum just days before she arrives at her aunt's. Her friend Abby, who has joined her at the Jersey Shore, will team up with a local boy Jake, and the three of them along with Sophie and The Finn will attempt to solve "The Secret of the Box." But they're not alone as the manhunt for the thieves takes on an international element that brings together local and state police, the FBI, as well as several international special investigators. During this adventure, Erica will also discover that the voice within her that appears unexpectedly and had previously warned her about impending danger is back. What does it all mean? "She stepped out from behind the dune and started to walk towards the cottage. Her mind was racing; she didn't know where she got the courage to face..." "The door suddenly flew open and this man stood in front of her. He was over six feet, big, but not fat with huge wide hands. He had a scraggly dirty black hair and a salt and pepper beard. Erica noticed a tattoo on his right forearm that was a picture of a skull with crossed knives under it. The only thing between them was a screen door. She felt her knees start to tremble and her mind telling her to run as fast as she could away from the cottage." Join Erica, Sophie and The Finn along with Abby and Jake as they begin a new mystery that places them in a new twist that leads them further from safety and draws them closer to danger.

Download or read book Meet the Sky written by McCall Hoyle and published by Blink. This book was released on 2018-09-04 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From award-winning author McCall Hoyle comes a new young adult novel, Meet the Sky, a story of love, letting go, and the unstoppable power of nature. It all started with the accident. The one that caused Sophie’s dad to walk out of her life. The one that left Sophie’s older sister, Meredith, barely able to walk at all. With nothing but pain in her past, all Sophie wants is to plan for the future—keep the family business running, get accepted to veterinary school, and protect her mom and sister from another disaster. But when a hurricane forms off the coast of North Carolina’s Outer Banks and heads right toward their island, Sophie realizes nature is one thing she can’t control. After she gets separated from her family during the evacuation, Sophie finds herself trapped on the island with the last person she’d have chosen—the reckless and wild Finn Sanders, who broke her heart freshman year. As they struggle to find safety, Sophie learns that Finn has suffered his own heartbreak; but instead of playing it safe, Finn’s become the kind of guy who goes surfing in the eye of the hurricane. He may be the perfect person to remind Sophie how to embrace life again, but only if their newfound friendship can survive the storm. Praise for McCall Hoyle’s debut novel, The Thing with Feathers: “Beautiful, touching, and bursting with hope.” Pintip Dunn, award-winning and New York Times bestselling author “Heartfelt and affecting. Hoyle tells a familiar story, but does so in a voice that is rarely heard, and that makes all the difference.” Leah Thomas, William C. Morris Award finalist and author of Because You’ll Never Meet Me and Nowhere Near You “The inspiring story of one girl’s struggle not to be defined by her illness, The Thing with Feathers soars as it explores what it means to live—and love—without fear.” Kathryn Holmes, author of How It Feels to Fly “A refreshing, quality debut—meaningfully woven and beautifully engaging, from the first page to the last.” YA Books Central (5 stars)

Download or read book Sophie and the Finn written by J. Peter Clifford and published by J Peter Clifford. This book was released on 2014-04 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Erica Stafford has just entered the sixth grade in Vermont after the family moved there from New Jersey just two years earlier. She leaves behind her old friends and is forced to make new ones in her new home. Fortunately she meets Abigail Adrianna Post or Abby, who becomes her very best friend. Abby's dog, Sandy, joins Sophie and The Finn and they form a bond that leads them on a number of adventures together. Then one day, by chance, Erica gets thrown into a mystery that she just can't let go of, but it could place her and her pups in imminent danger. She is torn between solving the mystery and turning her head as if it never happened. With Sophie and The Finn at her side she decides that she must see it to the end no matter the risk. Erica has also recently discovered that something strange is happening to her that she can't explain or understand. Is it something that she can control or does it only occur randomly without warning and what does it all mean? She and her two constant companions, Sophie and The Finn embark on an adventure that will begin with a discovery, but as they unravel the clues will eventually lead them into a dangerous encounter that places everyone at great danger. "Unfortunately she never heard Sophie's warning because of all of the noise coming from inside the factory building. The next thing she felt was a pair of large strong hands pinning her arms together. She struggled to try and free them, but it seemed like the more she squirmed, the tighter the grip became. It was as if she was caught in a vise. Next, she felt her feet being lifted off the ground, "Oh my God, she thought to herself, I've lost complete control of my body." It felt like a giant had picked her up like she was a helpless doll. It all happened so fast, she didn't know how to react. She thought, "What's happening to me, I can't even make a sound?" Finally she started to scream, but the odd thing was that there was no sound coming out of her mouth. Her legs were kicking out at this giant, but he was way too strong. To him it must have felt like nothing more than a mosquito attacking his tree trunk legs." It is a story of a young inquisitive girl and her two dogs that have built this incredible bond together and a sense of adventure that leads them into the Mystery of the Disappearing Dogs. Look for the second book in the series, "Secret of the Box," which will be out shortly. Visit us at: sophieandthefinn.com
