Whale Island and the Mysterious Bones
by Karen Bonnet
Katey and Will escape the captain's ship, along with the captain's nephew, Bartholomew and a crew member. When they reach Whale Island, a beautiful but dangerous island with unusual plant and animal life, they uncover the island's amazing secrets. During their island exploration, they traverse a perilous cave and confront huge Komodo dragons and other oversized animals. They eventually discover ancient whalebones which reveal incredible powers, including the ability to speak to whales, dolphins and fish. They also unearth an extraordinary discovery: a lost undersea civilization and its inhabitants, revealing a whole new world to them.
Whale Island and the Mysterious Bones, an exciting adventure story for children age eight to eleven, encompasses two themes: the profound significance of communicating and co-existing with animals, and ocean inhabitants; and understanding true courage after children confront their fears.

What Lies Below
by Joel Reitman
He exposes a plan to smuggle cars to Cuba from a deserted and polluted Air Force base in Arizona. Beaten down by disbelieving citizens and politicians, Tim packs up and heads to Long Island. He reunites with his buddy, Detective Ed Green, who is at the scene of a murder. A deer suffering from nuclear poisoning unexpectedly leads the two pals to a secret government program at the end of Long Island, Montauk Point.
There, hidden within a state park, is a sense of mystery surrounding a camouflaged village with underground bunkers, a vintage radar antenna and the lost experiments of Nikola Tesla. The two buddies seek to link polluting nuclear reactors and three unique radar towers to try and prove the existence of a secret government experiment.
This story was inspired by a piece I wrote as a journalist working for the Smithtown Messenger (a weekly) and reoccurred when I was also employed as a journalist by Southold's Traveler Watchman (also a weekly newspaper). Those pieces revolved around an underground plume of nuclear contamination that was from an unknown source. Other stories I have written have been published (Outta Here - Jackie Robinson) in The Storyteller magazine and in Newsday (Topping my list of Man's Best Friend).
