Fandango's Gold

Book excerpt: Ex-navy test pilot, Jack Carlton operates his 90-foot charter schooner out of the English harbor, Antigua. With his trusty mate Cobb and beautiful cook Megan, Jack sails the Fandango through squalls and reef-strewn waters to an appointment with fate on remote Aves Island. On a routine dive expedition, an old Spanish document written by a 19th-century monk comes to light and his passengers turn out to be more than just tourists. Long lost treasure spells trouble for Jack and his crew as they find themselves unwillingly embroiled in a plan to salvage the gold. Marooned on the lonely sandspit in the middle of the Caribbean, Jack and Megan survive a hurricane only to face certain death on the waterless Caribbean cay.
