Coming Soon: TEARS OF THE GODS

A TIMELESS PIRATE NOVEL
The tragic destruction of the Spanish treasure armada in 1715 by a hurricane off the Florida coast is fraught with mystery. What happened to the priceless emeralds, known as the ‘Tears of the Gods’, the centerpiece of Queen Isabella’s marriage dowry? And what strange powers do they possess? Why have they suddenly surfaced in a small town in northern California, surrounded by murder, deceit, international money laundering, and a sophisticated gang of female criminals? These are just a few of the questions that confront Josh Duncan, whose business, and personal life is on the verge of bankruptcy. And why is someone suddenly trying to kill him? And what are his strange “dreams” involving 18th Century pirates all about?
Tears of the Gods is the unique integration of historical fiction with a modern-day thriller that places Josh Duncan, a talented yet naïve young man from a small town in northern California, and Captain Josiah Duncan, a young merchant captain sailing in the Bahamas in 1714 into life and death struggles against deceit, greed, and pirate treachery. Enter a world where even closest friends are suspect and it is nearly impossible to know whom to trust.

And the pirates are women!

The women pirates wreck havoc in the lives of both Captain Josiah Duncan, a merchant captain in the 1700s, and young Josh Duncan, a businessman in a modern-day small California town. If you like modern-day thrillers and the swashbuckling adventure of 18th Century pirates, watch a panorama of international money laundering, global greed and cutthroat pirates unfold to an explosive climax.
