1. I think it is a book of adventure and a little bit of mystery because they probably travel and find or fix something.
2. I think the Captain is in Jim's father inn because he is hidding of some people. Maybe his pass was very complicated so that's why he likes this inn because is too quiet. The Captain has a box and he is affraid of dangerous people so i think BlackDog is one of them and the Captain is affraid of he could take the box away from him.
3. I do know all the words of the first page but 'ringers'.
4. I don't know what is the meaning of ringers. Maybe the right word was 'fingers' or something like it beacuse i didn't find 'ringers'.
