We first met Donny Walker in [[Strong Winds Trilogy: The Salt-Stained Book by Julia Jones and Claudia Myatt|The Salt-Stained Book]] as he and his mother Skye left their home on the outskirts of Leeds and headed off to the Suffolk coast. When his deaf-and-mute mother had a breakdown fourteen-year-old Donny was taken into care and the only good thing in his life was that he was introduced (almost accidentally) to sailing. He was a natural. The worst parts of his life were that he wasn't allowed to see his mother and no matter what he did he seemed to keep running foul of Social Services and a certain police inspector. Something was going on, but could Donny and his new friends work out what it was? And would his great Aunt, known as Golden Dragon, be able to help him when she arrived in her boat ''Strong Winds''?
If this book appeals we think you might also enjoy [[The Messenger Bird by Ruth Eastham]]. It lacks the boats but centres on Bletchley Park and secrets kept hidden since World War II. Have a look too at [[The Treasure House by Linda Newbery]] and [[A Greyhound of a Girl by Roddy Doyle]].
