True Rescue: The Finest Hours: The True Story of a Heroic Sea Rescue (True Rescue Series) Hardcover – 6 July 2021

I've written and co-written 30 books for adults and have been fortunate enough to land on the NY Times Bestseller list and had a Disney movie made on The Finest Hours. I've also written several books for children age 8-13, some of which are part of my "True Rescue Series" with MacMillan Publishing, and others part of "True Survival Series" with Little Brown.
