A Spartan at Sea

By James Alfred McCann

In this sequel to The Three Spartans, Art is all set to spend the last few weeks of summer in Birch Bay with his best friend Lea. But his plans change when he learns his nemesis Zeke is involved in a plot to tear down Finn Slough. His aunt and her girlfriend, Jordana, live in Finn Slough, a unique community near Stevenston, B.C. made up of wood homes on stilts. Art goes to Finn Slough to convince the local dragon boat hero to enter the race, only to discover his mission is close to impossible. The dragon boat hero, Teejay, has no interest in competing. Art considers giving up, but when he learns Jordana is dying, he has another reason to save the slough. Art has to draw on all of his leadership skills -and gain some paddling skills-he'if he's going to succeed. Much like the Greeks in the Battle of Salamis, Art and his new Finn Slough friends are at a disadvantage. But with some cunning they still may triumph.
