On the turbulent high seas, an archeologist must protect a historic shipwreck from treasure hunters-not fall for one.Zahra CorbynAs the professor of antiquities, nothing snaps my cap more than treasure hunters and looters. They smash and grab and then are gone with the wind. And there are two after Sea Wraith. But fate is a funny thing. Thanks to an ancient Mortar & Pestle, not only am I in cahoots with one of them but he's also fired up my heart, turning me into a khaki-wacky.Captain Jack AlexanderI've been told women on a ship are unlucky, but this dame has the two pieces of the map I need to finally claim Sea Wraith. Now, I find myself in a lousy deal that makes me one-third partner with her and a known scalawag. It's either that or bupkis. After all these years of chasing down my dream of finding the shipwreck, my obsession is cooling off and heating up toward a bird who's way above my pay grade.Can the two unlikely allies work together while safeguarding their hearts against the power of the Mortar & Pestle?If you like Lara Croft and Indiana Jones, you'll love Zahra Corbyn and Jack Alexander.
