The Old Man at the Mouth of the Ocklawaha: Mystery Adventures of the St. Johns River - Volume 1 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798187203154)

A mysterious figure (old indian man) stands silently in the early morning fog where the Ocklawaha River meets the St. Johns-and three curious boys are determined to discover who he is.
When Cliff, Marc, and Randy hear an old fisherman's story about a tall, gray-haired Indian man who appears near the riverbank and then vanishes into the swamp, they cannot resist investigating. Their search takes them away from the familiar waters of the St. Johns River and deep into the twisting creeks, cypress forests, and hidden islands of the Ocklawaha.
Along the way, the boys encounter cottonmouths, large alligators, sudden storms, abandoned camps, mysterious carvings, and clues connected to a forgotten promise from the river's past. The farther they travel, the more they realize that the old man may not be trying to frighten them-he may be protecting something important.
To uncover the truth, Cliff, Marc, and Randy must rely on their courage, friendship, and respect for the dangerous wilderness around them. But they will also learn that some mysteries are not meant to become public knowledge, and some secrets are worth protecting.
The Old Man at the Mouth of the Ocklawaha is the first book in the Mystery Adventures of the St. Johns River series-a suspenseful river adventure filled with mystery, danger, friendship, and the wild beauty of Old Florida.
