Buried Pirate Treasure and a Wisecracking Heroine Lead to Romance, Adventure and
Murder in Prohibition-Era Long Island!
Wisecracking Jane Teach had pirate blood, a
take-charge attitude, and a penchant for sticking her nose in the wrong places.
Sober-minded Bill Popple was from one of Long Island's first families, a
conservative-minded young man who walked the straight and narrow. When they met
it was loathing at first sight, definitely not a match made in heaven. But with
six people trying to kill them over a dead bootlegger's lost fortune and a
pirate's treasure secretly buried three hundred years ago, they both needed
each other.
First Bill Popple, the muscular serious-minded
research student, unearths information which makes the odds high in favor of
pirate gold being hidden long ago on what is now Hartman's property. Then Jane
Teach, the streamlined girl of ready wit, who seems to know more than Bill does
about almost everything, suggests that there may be not one treasure but two,
the first one part of her ancestor's lost loot, the second a bootlegger's
ill-gotten gains. Next, Jane and Bill discover a corpse lying on a beach near Oxbow
Bay with gold pieces sunk into its eye sockets.
Soon the pair find themselves up to their necks in
mystery and dark doings involving the heterogeneous group of strangers who have
appeared suddenly in town to wait and watch for ... what? From then on, Jane and
Bill never experience a dull moment.
How they extricate themselves, and at the same
time solve two deep mysteries, adds up to an absorbing novel of skullduggery
and sudden death in which excitement and romance mount to an increasingly high
pitch and culminate in a wholly satisfying climax.
