Having recently lost his father from a mining accident in Northern Western Australia, twelve year old Hunter Mitchell along with his much younger brother Fraser learnt from their mother, that we may be moving to her ancestral home of the Cook Islands, in the central Pacific.  This meant that Hunter would be leaving his good friends, especially his best friend Jacob, who along with his father and older brother, took me on a sailing trip onboard a racing trimaran, to help me stop thinking of the loss of my father, and had an awesome time.

This is a fantastic story about Hunter Mitchell, a 12 year old boy and his younger brother Fraser, who recently lost there Dad in a mining accident.

The brothers learn from there Mum that they will be leaving everything behind and moving to the anchestoral home in the Cook Islands.

A fantastic adventure awaits Hunter and Fraser as they travel to the Cook Islands where they meet there new family.

A fantastic first book in the series, I look forward to book two and the further adventures of Hunter and family.

I enjoyed this story.  Especially I enjoyed the interactions of Hunter and his Uncle Rangi, and of Hunter and his cousins Range and Ari.  Hunter's natural talents and good training become more and more visible as the story progresses.

The story gets even better as it continues.  There is one considerable flaw -- and that flaw is that there is not yet a sequel.  (Hint, hint, @quokka!)
