When Professor Jake Stoughton and Dr. Jenna Corey dive to the Andrea Doria, 250 feet below the Atlantic, it's a recovery operation for a reward placed on the remains of the 17th diver to the shipwreck, Thom Richards--last man to lose his life in the effort. The motivation is to create a documentary on the seemingly unluckiest place below the waves. But it soon turns into a frightful discovery of secrets that the Andea Doria has kept hidden for 60 years. With the help of Sharky, Jim, and Dolph the dive team uncovers a supernatural element named Lenora, the lost child of the Andrea Doria, but they also uncover a terrible secret beyond anything ghostly. They discover an all-too-human conspiracy to take the ship down in 1956 when it 'collided' with The Stockhom. A conspiracy to make it and its menacing cargo a home for sea life and a DEAD SHIP DOWN.

When young Ben Cross escapes occupied Boston in 1775, he has no idea that he will become a cannoneer of the First Artillery Unit of the Continental Army under Colonel Henry Knox, nor that he would be in the company of the Green Mtn. Regiment of Ethan Allen and the tough Vermonters. Now could he have dreamed of dining with General George Washington himself, or helping to arm the Continental Army. But it takes a gargantuan effort which involves a 600 mile round-trip over some of the roughest mountain ranges, the Adirondacks and the Berkshires, to haul 73 cannons, most 24-pounders, via oxen train over iced over rivers in dead of winter through areas where no roads exist until the American soldiers build them ahead of the artillery train.Col. Knox, a bookseller in Boston at the time that war broke out, was one of the few men who had trained on artillery with the British, and using is own funds, he financed the movement of the captured cannons of Fort Ticonderoga from the Upper Tier region of northern New York to Boston. Ben, a 17-year-old boy, fast becomes a man when faced with responsibility, sabotage, and the court martial of Henry Knox as a spy.
