Publisher's Summary

A sunken secret. A missing woman. A race against time. 

Former SAS major Ben Hope is relaxing at his home in Normandy when he hears the worst news of his life. His ex-girlfriend, Dr Brooke Marcel, has been kidnapped. Racing against the clock, Ben's frantic search for Brooke leads him from Ireland to the Spanish mountains and the rainforests of Peru. 

What is the mysterious link between the kidnapping, the salvage of a sunken 16th-century Spanish warship and the secret activities of its wealthy discoverer? As the trail of wreckage and mayhem intensifies, Ben soon uncovers a web of intrigue, corruption and brutal murder. But will he be too late to find Brooke alive?

Bangs, Blood and Victories.

Scott Mariani writes epic novels. They are well-written, descriptions are visible and you always lose yourself in the story. This was about a boy who started out poor but instead of becoming rich and a good man; he became rich, greedy and insane.
The narration was very well done and easily understood.

Excruciating performance by reader Jack Hawkins

Reader Hawkins leeches out most of the enjoyment of this book by a cringe-worthy and excruciating depiction of supporting characters. Hawkins doesn't seem to understand that absolutely NO-ONE speaks the way he represents the supporting characters in the story.
