"The vacation may be over, but the adventure is just beginning."

Just yesterday 13-year-old Rachel was thrust back in time to the year 1616. Lost in a strange era, she befriended a ship of pirates and fulfilled the myth of the Pirate Bride before returning to 2010. Happy to be reunited with her family, she is now worried that she does not know what happened to her newly found pirate friends.

Follow Rachel as she searches the vacation island for clues about the fate of the pirates Reginald, Armand and Cookie, all while babysitting her zombie-obsessed 10-year-old brother, Steven.

The Lost Crew is the exciting sequel to the Award Winning first-time novel The Pirate Bride by Ryan & Anna McKinley (2011 Readers Favorite Gold Medal, Children's Fiction; 2010 Foreword Review Book of the Year Award Finalist, Children's Fiction).

The Pirate Bride and sequel The Lost Crew, both beautifully illustrated by artist Jerry Bennett, highlight the value of family-love 'em or hate 'em, they will define us from the day we are born until the day we die.
