Stormy Rhodes And The Lost Ice Ship

Jason Burchfield

Spending your life seeking out the fabled treasures forgotten by the world seems fun, and it is, until you overhear the crew’s plan to leave your body at sea. Meet Stormy Rhodes, a preteen runaway. The world can seem intimidating, but Stormy Rhodes chose to see the endless possibilities. He spent his adolescence dumpster diving and avoiding anyone that might realize he was parentless roaming the alleys. He quickly learned the city’s patterns and developed ingenuity for the streets. Now as an adult, Stormy has used his hard learned skills to set up a business of obtaining and salvaging left behind treasures. He has the great need and drive to always be proving himself from his meager beginnings, and low and behold he’s gotten a lead on his fabled white whale. Will he be able to succeed? He’ll have the help of an exuberantly quirky friend, but also the pure malice of a gilded competitor. This new information is for the debatable Habakkuk. The Habakkuk was a prototype ship of ice made during WWII. On its maiden voyage it was purported to have carried gold when it sank. Was it real? Can Stormy find it, while battling against all odds? He unknowingly enters the open sea with a mutinous crew. A game of cat and mouse begins causing Stormy to match wits with a captain set on collecting the bounty for his death while having to troubleshoot a malfunctioning mini sub on the sea floor. Dive in and find out! Filled with action, comedy, suspense and betrayal, Stormy Rhodes shows that with persistence, a sense of humor and a ton of luck, childhood dreams can still come true.
