One day Pete and Pam Hollister rescued a Seminole Indian named Charlie Tiger Tail from drowning in Pine Lake.
Paperback; 174 pages with 20 illustrations..
There were many more thrilling adventures--including Ricky\'s capture by the thieves--before the Hollisters finally traced the poachers to their hideout and solved the sea Turtle mystery.
And they visited Clementine\'s grandmother in a Seminole village where the boys learned how to pole a real dugout canoe.
They inspected a great Mississippi riverboat that had been towed up on land and turned into a huge mansion.
With Charlie\'s ten-year-old daughter, Clementine, the children rowed to mysterious Captive Island to investigate the eerie sounds coming from there each night.
And they were eager to help Charlie catch a gang of thieves who were illegally killing giant sea turtles and stealing their eggs! After Holly found a poacher\'s spear, Ricky and Pete patrolled the beach one night and almost trapped the poachers.
Within a few days, all the Hollisters were enjoying the beach at Turtle Point in the Everglades.
But they never dreamed that their heroic act would lead to a new, exciting Mystery and a vacation in Florida.
