Publisher's Synopsis
How far would you go to retrieve a quarter-million dollar inheritance? Investigative journalists Paige and Max Alper drop everything, including their jobs, to hopscotch from San Francisco to San Diego to New York to Hong Kong to take up the paper chase. Along the way they are pursued, trapped, stripped naked, kidnapped, and set afire while trying to find the inheritance from her sea captain uncle. A seemingly simple treasure hunt turns into an international adventure of intrigue, courage, revenge, and death.
