Spawned from an ancient promise, treachery and intrigue follow the protagonists through our world and one lost to the waves. Bound by an invisible bond, they are thrust into a fantastical world of pirates and demons.

James Benedict is a just man haunted by evil. Pushed to the edge, everything stripped from him, a new man arises . . . a man whose name strikes fear into the hearts of all who hear it: "Captain Hook".

Eileen Davis was a timid woman. Through a fateful cruise she finds herself in the company of the Captain of the Mistral Thief. With his guidance, and the meddling of the local barista, she eventually finds her inner strength.

Will the two of them unite through time to fulfill the promise of their ancestors or will tempers ignite leading all to failure?

True love's magic is not to avoid changes,
But to navigate them successfully.

About Elizabeth Los

I began writing fan fiction short stories in 2010 as means of escape. Every night, after ten hours of work and once the children were finally tucked in bed, for the fifth time, I would sit at my laptop and let my imagination flow through my fingers. Typing over eighty words per minute, my stories quickly began to form from novellas into full length novels. I used writing as my therapy, my release for stress.


Interview


Do you have a favorite comment or question from a reader?
I’ve enjoyed many of the comments, especially when it comes to comparing James Benedict (aka Hook) and Robert Benedict. I welcome all questions regarding Second on the Right, so none are particularly my favorite. However, I’ve grown amused by the repeated comment. It would seem that a dragged out the mystery within the novel a bit too long. Several have said that once they’ve reached the halfway point in the novel, the story takes off like a rocket. Because I keep reading this comment, I’m debating adding it to the novel’s blurb!


Where do your ideas come from?
I’m twisted mind? Sometimes I have dreams that give me the spark for an idea. Othertimes, it happens while I’m doing mind numbing work, like cleaning. When my work requires little brain power, so to speak, I find my mind wanders and I begin to think and formulate stories. Sometimes I recreate scenes from movies where I didn’t like what happened to a particular character.


If you could sum your main character into five words, what would they be?
Loving, Loyal, Persistent, Intelligent, Temperamental


Who is your favorite author and why?
If I could only choose one, I’d have to say Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Sherlock Holmes is my favorite fictional character. I’ve read those stories over and over again.


What is your favorite scene to write?
I enjoyed writing the scene in Captain Benedict’s quarters where we first see Eileen encounter Pan. A close second would be the confrontation between James and Pan aboard the Mistral Thief.


Who is your favorite character in your book and why?
James is my favorite character in Second on the Right and also the inspiration/reason why I wrote Second on the Right in the first place. I always felt there was more to Hook’s story than just what we find in Barrie’s version. What motivated him and pushed him to seek revenge on Peter Pan? Was it really just the loss of his right hand or was there more to it than that?
