Description

When Dr. Paul Pickering joins his patient Captain Seal on a Mediterranean voyage, they make an astonishing discovery – a shipwrecked 16th century Spanish galleon brimming with treasure. But their fortune brings danger as well. A cryptic parchment describes where its former owner, an Italian nobleman, hid the bulk of his wealth in rural England.

As Paul races to find it with his friend Philip, they realize a ruthless gang of pirates and thieves are also seeking the Tickencote treasure. To uncover it first, Paul and Philip must decipher clues and evade murder in a thrilling game of cat-and-mouse. Yet even if they find the treasure, can they protect it and stake their claim?
