Uncharted Waters
(eBook)

Uncharted Waters It's 1805 and André, now 16, desperately wants to paddle with French-Canadian canoe brigades-maybe his last chance. But choosing to tend to his ailing foster parents, he relinquishes his clerk's position at a fur trade post in the vast Canadian wilderness. When a British officer taps him to organize and lead a single express canoe headed for a military post on Lake Huron and transport a small boy and his companion instead of trade goods, André leaps at the opportunity. He expects a simple journey-except that this late in the season few voyageurs are available. Except that water levels are much lower than he realized. Except that they're alone, without other canoes to rely on. And he's never led a brigade. Uncharted Waters is André's third adventure-a teen battling the uncertainties along the rivers-and plumbing his own depths. Waters Like the Sky (Book 1) chronicles his entry into the fur trade to find a long-lost brother. In Treacherous Waters (Book 2), his literacy skills are in demand when a nearby trader dies and André must trek alone across a winter wilderness to head a post of experienced voyageurs.
