About this listen
Not even Captain Jack Sparrow can rival the Lafittes' adventures in time!
While retrieving their treasure cache, Jean and Pierre Lafitte enter a mysterious fog on the Mississippi. Frightened by the fog, their cook, a student of Marie Laveau, invokes a chant which moves the ship and its crew to the 21st century. They discover the time shift when they seize a tug headed up stream.
Trapped in this unfamiliar time, the brothers reach an agreement with the tugboat's crew. For a portion of the treasure, the crew agrees to get them to Memphis. They also hire two of the tug's crew to be their guides in the modern world until they can work the force that moved them forward in time.
As they hide out in 21st century Memphis, the situation becomes desperate. Jean discovers his wife, left behind in the 19th century, requires a modern medical procedure to save her and her unborn child.
Frantic to discover the time travel secret, they enlist the help of scientists, voodoo practitioners, and a talking crow. But once the secret is unlocked, they still must make the journey both through time and across the Caribbean to the pirates’ home port on Galveston Island.
New Orleans Street hustlers and slave catchers throw obstacles in their path. While US Navy pirate hunters strive to bring the crew to justice. Can they do it? Will they achieve A Rescue in Time?

US Marshal Arliss Cutter is a born tracker. Raised in the swamplands of Florida, he honed his skills in the military, fought in the Middle East, and worked three field positions for Marshal Services. When it comes to tracking someone down - or taking someone out - Cutter's the best. But his newest assignment is taking him out of his comfort zone to southeast Alaska. Cold, dark, uninhabited forests that are often shrouded in fog. And it's the kind of case that makes his blood run cold.

When the black rain began to fall, it was a worldwide phenomenon that mystified everyone. There was little time to ponder the cause. Most animals died at the onset. While some humans were unaffected, others experienced a half-death of sorts, morphing into blood and flesh-crazed creatures with a desire to hunt the living. Climbing Fox Wattana of the Henomawi Nation claims responsibility for the black rain; he says it will will ensure the ultimate extinction of the United States government as revenge for robbing his people of their land. Cole "CB" Baxter isn't taking this lying down.
