The Pearlmakers Trilogy - Tate, Duke

. .

Résumé :
Greedy developers want Teddy Dollarhide's land. His only hope for salvation lies under the sea. Nightmares have him gasping for air. Frequently dreaming of being a sailor on a sinking Spanish galleon, La Gracia, in the seventeenth century, he's searched for the wreck and its priceless cargo off the Northeast Floridian coast for the last six years. Facing financial ruin from a massive tax bill, Teddy fears he'll lose his beloved historic estate, Isabella, before he can dredge up the treasure. However, his luck changes when an antique pistol covered in barnacles surfaces in a new location, and he and his four man crew, The Pearlmakers, shift their search hoping to make the score of a lifetime. But with a brutal hurricane assaulting his little town, Teddy's renewed fortunes may drown in a mountain of debt deeper than the lost ship's deepwater secret. Meanwhile, Teddy falls in love with a beautiful riveting stranger that oddly resembles a Spanish woman from his dreams and his older boys go off in search of a long forgotten family treasure buried in the California mountains. Nothing is what it seems as time slips away and everyone's dreams are on the line. The Pearlmakers Trilogy contains all three books in a riveting mystery serial. If you like Southern gothic, magical realism, funny characters, and seafaring legends, then you'll love Duke Tate's atmospheric adventure. This Special Edition Hardcover features a Foreward by the author, an Appendix packed full extras, plus an illustrated map.
