An ancient secret awakens, beckoning the brave into the shadows of history.

“...one extremely enjoyable read.” —Chris Miller, Best Thriller Books

Carter Mosley is thrust into an unexpected adventure when his childhood friend and former dive partner, Jeff Shelton, leaves him a cryptic message. Carter is hesitant given his friend's shadowy past, but loyalty draws him in. Joined by Avery Turner, he heads to England to follow the trail. The quest turns deadly when Jeff is murdered and a link to Captain Ace Mullins, a legendary pirate whose tale conceals a priceless treasure, is unveiled.

From England's ancient reefs to Paris's underground catacombs, their search escalates into a high-stakes race across Europe. As Carter and Avery confront mercenaries and decode the past, the treasure they seek becomes more than just riches; it's a puzzle steeped in history, where each clue could be their last.

Bestselling authors LynDee Walker and Bruce Robert Coffin pen this heart-pounding adventure thriller, where the past and present collide, revealing secrets that some would kill to keep buried. Perfect for fans of Clive Cussler's Dirk Pitt series and Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code.
