Jeff Abbott

Grand Central Publishing, Apr 29, 2014 - Fiction - 368 pages

In this spellbinding new thriller, Texas judge Whit Mosley is about to cross the point of no return...

They found Whit Mosley's missing friends at Black Jack Point-dead and buried, along with bones and relics from a legendary past. When Whit opens an inquest into the murders, he's plunged into a shadowy world of ruthless treasure hunters, double-crossing tycoons, and money-hungry sharks -- all chasing a long-lost fortune in emeralds and gold. His only ally, police detective Claudia Salazar, is kidnapped at sea and held hostage in a deadly game of betrayal and greed. To survive, both Claudia and Whit must stay one step ahead of their common enemy -- a desperate killer far more dangerous than any pirate of old...

Slow moving in patches and lifted by an explosive climax. Strong characters elevate the familiar elements.
