Book description

adventure, featuring captain Juan Cabrillo.
1896: HMS Rove vanishes in a shocking storm off the African coast.
Aboard is a fortune in stolen diamonds...
Present day: Juan Cabrillo and the crew of the covert super-ship
Oregon have just escaped a double-cross on the Congo River when
they come to the aid of Sloane Macintyre - looking for some long lost
treasure. Sloane's story is strange and when Juan checks it out, he
finds that there's much more than just diamonds at stake on the
African coast.
A deranged militant and his followers plan to unleash a devastating
power that will kill millions and cause worldwide havoc. Soon the
Oregon is steaming to the rescue - but some forces are so
extreme that even a hero like Juan Cabrillo thinks twice before
getting involved...

co-author Jack Du Brul tell a gripping story of treasure hunting and
treachery in the fourth novel of the adventure series The
