Publisher's summary

A brand-new, electrifying legal thriller that will take you around the world in search of one of the greatest sunken treasures of all time.

In the 21st century, modern-day treasure hunters scour the seas for ancient shipwrecks. The rarest of these are worth colossal fortunes and can make their finders fabulously wealthy in the blink of an eye.

Against this backdrop, young Houston lawyer Jack Carver meets his newest client, Ashley Marcum. She is looking for help after the mysterious death of her brother, who died while working for a giant oil company. Jack and Ashley’s only clue about his death is a set of unidentified gold coins of indeterminate age and value.

As Jack and Ashley scramble to discover how her brother died and uncover the origin of the coins, the oil company sends their powerful lawyers to stop them. Jack and Ashley soon find themselves caught up in a legal battle to uncover the truth—a battle they are ill-equipped to win.

As the saga unfolds, Jack and Ashley soon discover that the coins belong to an ancient shipwreck—perhaps one of the greatest of all time. As the oil company tries to subvert the legal process and shut them out, Jack and Ashley are forced to fight a case that begins in Texas but soon spreads across the globe.

Amidst twists, turns, and roadblocks, Jack and Ashley must race through a history shrouded in secrets, spurred on by a case that ignites a firestorm around the world.

Fun Read

As a John Grisham fan from late 90s and a "Sea Adventure" fan from way before that... I really enjoyed this book. I am familiar with basic concepts of law but knew nothing about maritime law. I enjoyed geeking out on the twists of the plot involving maritime law and history.
I think narration was pretty good and I dont remember getting bored at any moment.

narration had a lot to desire.
