Publisher's summary

"Landon Beach's debut novel The Wreck is a modern-day Treasure Island that keeps the reader turning pages." (Steve Alten, New York Times and international best-selling author of The Meg and The Loch)

Nate and Brooke Martin arrive at their summer cottage along the rapidly gentrifying Great Lakes shoreline. The beach is warm, the water is cool, and the sea breeze is blissful - perfect conditions for rekindling their strained relationship.

However, on a morning stroll along the beach, Nate finds an unusual gold coin half-buried in the sand. Where did it come from? Are there more?

Teaming up with reclusive ex-Coast Guard officer and Great Lakes master of the deep Abner Hutch, Nate dives for clues to the treasure's origins. But when word leaks that there may be a fortune hidden under the waves, they find themselves hunted by mega-rich residents up the coast who are willing to do anything to advance their extravagant lifestyles.

Will the Martins change their family's fortunes, or will the summer vacation end in a tragedy?

Put on some sunscreen, unfold a beach chair, and get ready to discover The Wreck.

Drops off too fast

The book spent a long time setting up the action the in less than 5 minute the ending was told.
Try less story and better endings

A saga of sunken treasure and greed

An accidental discovery of an ancient gold coin triggers a search for more and opens the door to treachery.

a lot of foreplay with a very short climax

loved the narrator. that's something I struggle with in audiobooks- finding a good one. The story line was interesting on the husband's end with the coin but felt the story was very 50s with the wife just sunbathing and minding her own while her husband is off playing with his old war friend. Having said that I did like Hutch. There were some pointlessly dramatic parts of the book..like one scene where a character that barely seems to matter is detailed as banging a high schooler who cleans his house for the summer and some other cliche moments like that. The climax to me felt like..things were finally happening with this other group Beach was describing throughout the book and then all of a sudden it was the end...but that might just be my viewpoint and others may think differently. overall I'd say it's a decent read..just a few things to be aware of.
