"This
could easily be a series and I would read every book in it!" |
Author Tom Ryan |
Treasure-hunter
Marshall Cross is down on his luck and recently divorced. His foundering
archeology-themed amusement park, Treasure Island, is being threatened by
ruthless real estate tycoon Denton Barrett, and Cross is hoping for a big find
to stave off selling his dream. Finding Pizarro’s golden sword, an intricately
carved, razor-sharp rapier lost in a hurricane in 1715 off the Coast of Brevard
County, Florida, would do just that. Cross’ problems mount when news breaks
that a meteor is forecast to strike the Atlantic, threatening to send a mammoth
tsunami barreling into the Florida peninsula.
From undersea shipwrecks, to gator-infested swampland, to the Kennedy Space
Center – Cross’ adventures find him going toe-to-toe with Barrett’s
paramilitary army, a seductive zookeeper, and a surly bull shark named Marge.
Can Cross unearth Pizarro’s sword, save Treasure Island, uncover an
astronomical conspiracy, and find love – all before the meteor crashes into
the ocean and his new-found adversaries turn him into shark bait?
Filled
with high-seas excitement, breezy humor, and tropical romance, with A Sword for
Pizarro, you’re not just reading a book, you’re along for the adventure.
