Beschreibung

Did Black Sam bury pirate treasure in Port Essex 300 years ago? After finding an incredibly lucrative Spanish treasure in the Keys of Florida, Black Sam Bellamy decided to leave the pirate life and return to his true love in New England. Before being shipwrecked on the way to retrieve her, he hid his booty with the Chbo So Clan in Port Essex. "Well, Mr. Wolfe, to get straight to the point, we want you to help us find a lost pirate treasure."Clay Wolfe had been slouched in the desk chair of his P.I. office, but now he straightened up and sat forward. His normally natty attire was ruffled, stubble dotted his face, and his eyes were red. "In Port Essex?" Clay Wolfe, devastated by the death of his grandfather, is hired by an antiques dealer to find a long-lost pirate treasure and finds himself pitted against an unscrupulous sex doll businessman, a motorcycle gang, a greedy salvage boat operator, and other mysterious entities. Also recruited for this treasure hunt is Clay's crew: Westy, Crystal, Murphy, Cloutier, and of course, Baylee Baker. And the spark between Clay and his partner, Baylee, finally bursts into flame...
