the treasure hunting business--until some old enemies ace him out. Fortunately for Buck, a beautiful University professor with ancient Maroon secrets about the missing riches of captain Henry Morgan lures him back to the chase. Thrust into turbulent waters where trust is as elusive as the treasure itself, Buck's knocked further off course with the appearance of the once love-of-his-life. The heat of Maroon Rising jumps off the page as Buck ricochets from the pirate enclave of Port Royal--once the Wickedest City on Earth--to the Blue Mountains, GoldenEye Resort, white sand beaches and the lush Cockpit Country of Jamaica. The conclusion will leave you breathless and change Buck's life forever.
