“a master story-teller”
My recipe for a good evening in… The difference between an archaeologist, a treasure hunter and a crime is sometimes only a razor’s edge. In the company of Sean Kingsley, a master story-teller with a lifetime of archaeology and adventure behind him, you get a fast moving and totally believable synthesis of fact and fiction. A collision between temptation, addiction and mystery that will haunt you long after you’ve put the book down

“an instant modern classic”
A vastly enjoyable read by a gifted story-teller that just flies off the page without a flat sentence in sight. Deep character work, inviting settings and some great plot devices make this an instant modern classic within the sunken-galleon and treasure-centric genre. Kingsley, one of the best-known maritime field archaeologists of our time, has produced a work that draws deep on his personal knowledge and experience. This is Kingsley’s first foray into fiction, a bravura performance – more please! This book has ‘movie’ written all over it.

“More than a book”
A very important book. It’s a story that needs to be told and… Kingsley (a master maritime archaeologist) give it to us point-blank. It’s more than a book; it’s a message never to be forgotten.
