The Nancy Blackett Shop is temporarily closed. We've had to clear out the stock, and quite a lot of other stuff, to facilitate some building works. We should certainly be in business again during October, in time for your Christmas shopping.

“Voyage North” by Julia Jones – the Strong Winds finale

Julia Jones owns and sails Arthur Ransome’s ketch Peter Duck.

It’s the summer of 2012. In Russia, the newly-elected President is tightening his grip on power while the UK focusses on preparations for the Olympics. Donny has dropped out of school, left Strong Winds, and is heading north on an oligarch’s superyacht with a canister of toxic waste. His journey will take him across the Arctic Circle and into the Barents Sea. Here he may find answers to questions that have troubled him all his life – and others which he has never thought to ask. But who will he meet on the way and can he ever return to the life he has left behind?

This is the final adventure in a series which has appealed to many adult readers as well as to older children.
