Publisher's Synopsis
In the nearly two decades since Jeremiah had taken on the name Covington and left his lawless adventuring life behind him, he had not thought about the friends lost to him, had not thought about the love he was separated from by half the oceans of the world more than once or twice...a day.Jeremiah Guns returns in another tale to rival Jolly Roger and Dragons. When fate brings an old enemy from his youth to shatter his peaceful life, the former pirate is soon back in the Caribbean, searching for a larcenous crew and a ship to steal. With old companions like George Tyler and new ones of the nature of retired pirate captain Red Nash O'Brian, Guns takes a hand in freeing a doomed female pirate and drops anchor in the secret harbor of the long-dead Pirate King of the Caribbean, where the sand is covered with the bones of the dead. With a mismatched crew of seasoned brigands and dockside cutthroats, Jeremiah Guns sets sail for the Indian Ocean.A beautiful noblewoman rescued from a battered and sinking ship, a mutinous first mate and a vengeful buccaneer disrupt a simple voyage, throwing Guns and a handful of companions onto a dangerous shore. Pursued by blood-thirsty mutineers and ravenous beasts from the forgotten past, they struggle to reach the only bastion of safety on an island inhabited by a remnant of a world that had disappeared before the first man ever walked the earth.Once again set sail on a quest for gold and a treasure for more valuable than any mere chest of coins and jewels. Cutlasses flash, cannons bellow and Jeremiah Guns dodges the cold grip of death time and again in his quest for his ultimate treasure. Humor and danger go hand in hand when Jeremiah Guns sets sail in search of the Treasure of Dragon Island.
