Tommy Two Pockets

Tommy Two Pockets and the Posse of the Marsh starts in 1987 at the fictional Mouillee Rest Home near the Lake Erie Marshes.  The main character, Tommy Two Pockets, doesn't exactly get along with the staff and during his downtime, reflects back on his time in Black's Bay as an 11/12 year old boy in 1920, where the Posse of the Marsh is formed.

Black's Bay is a small fishing hamlet on Lake Erie where they are terrorized by the local woodcutter who is confronted by the Posse.  It is an adventure story centered around love, loyalty, and a look into end of life issues.

If you read POP's and Fricke Island, you wi recognize some fo the characters in this book.  It si the 3rd in the Erie Marsh series.  However, it can be read as a stand alone book.
