    "Creative characters guide the reader through what in many ways is a sailing adventure...er...caper around Jamaica... A hidden gem." -Richard J. Wall, Editor."David Beckwith's knowledge of and affection for Caribbean culture and its wind-blown intricacies are showcased in this fast-moving story set in Jamaica's hot, salty underbelly. Having had some experience in Jamaica, I can say this story is as colorful as the country itself and is filled with unique nicknames, Jamaican dialect, and the sense of abandon that exists in the lawless parts of its society. I can still smell the jerked chicken and meat patties from here." -Reef Perkins, bestselling author of Deep Air and Sex, Salvage, and SecretsWill and Betsy Black's latest adventure takes them back to Jamaica. When Jamaican Shower Posse second-in-command, Harry Dog, is given what appears to be a simple, routine assignment, he delegates it to Bigga, the posse's third-in-command, who selects Oney, Which Flava, and Twinie, three of his young up-and-comers, to carry out the task. After this "no-brainer" goes awry, however, Harry Dog is forced to send three reliables, Hi-top, Monkeyman, and Mighty Mouse, to get things back on track, but bad luck continues to strike, making it appear that if Harry Dog didn't have bad luck, he'd have no luck at all as the hole they are digging just keeps getting deeper and deeper.

    ∩╗┐"We love the adventures of husband-and-wife sleuths Will and Betsy Black. One of my favorite books took place in Jamaica. Now they back on that island, looking for buried treasure. But will Harry Dog beat them to the prize? I loved the dialect-filled telling."         -Pamela Paige, former feature writer, Sunday Magazine"Beckwith''s charming and clever husband-wife detectives romp from Key West to Jamaica in search of lost treasure. A delight for fans of Nick and Nore Charles."         -Roberta Isloib writing as Lucy Burdette,                   Key West food critic mysteries.When The Colonel comes into possession of an old diary by the captain of a Spanish galleon that sank off Jamaica in 1740, it sets off a search for a $600-million treasure buried somewhere on the island. Not surprising that the dangerous Harry Dog and his posse get involved. And it follows that Key West-based financial gurus Will and Betsy Black receive a phone call from their friend Mikey Mo asking them to come down to Jamaica to help The Colonel. They are tapped to be the couriers who deliver the money to purchase an old calabash that offers a clue to the treasure''s location. But will Harry Dog let that happen? An exotic island adventure that sounds as authentic as Mel Fisher''s search for the Atocha.
