In the quiet, coastal town of Queenscliff, Australia, there exists the unbelievable legend of the pirate, Benito Bonito. It is so fascinating, so fantastic, it captures the imagination of all who hear it. This is a story woven around the legend. Told in the genre of magic realism, it grips the reader right to the end - living up to its title 'Stirrin' the Blood'- a metaphor for excitement not brutality. For Jack, desperate to escape his poverty, is transformed into a blaze of happiness when he hears about Queenscliff's captivating legend. Could it be, at last, that a new life is awaiting him? But to reach his destiny is a huge challenge. Magical forces are wreaking havoc at every turn - even making the bay unrecognizable. With his new friend, Tinny, they battle through risky encounters and unknown dangers. It is the hardest mission of their lives. But what they discover in the end, changes them for ever and they are never the same again.
