From the very beginning, the Bible tells a story of redemption. God made the first man to rule as king over all he created, only to see Adam’s reign end before it had barely begun. God knew all this, and that’s why he sent the one true king, Jesus, to dwell with us and reclaim what Adam had lost, saving mankind from the penalty of sin. Best-selling author Gloria Furman makes this concept come alive for kids as she compares Adam, the archetype, with Christ, “the last Adam”.

For two years, twelve-year-old Tommy Klopt, his dad, Hoody, and his two brothers, Connor and Dillon, sailed the seas as Robin Hood-type pirates. After meeting, and almost getting killed, by a pirate from the 1600s turned evil ghost, Francois l'Olonnais, the family decides to head back to land and start over.

Tommy Klopt is cunning and clever. Of course, he's a pirate. The 12-year-old, along with his brothers, Connor and Dillon, begin a life at sea when their distraught father, Hoody, hits hard times. After a couple of years of smooth sailing as Robin Hood-type pirates, the family encounters a typhoon in the form of 400-year-old pirate ghost, Francois l'Olonnais. To force Tommy to complete a task, l'Olonnais captures Hoody. In a race against time to free him, the boys go up against real pirates and the FBI.
