Winner of the Booksellers Best Award for Romantic Suspense
From award-winning author Susannah Sandlin comes a heart-pounding
romantic thriller that pits a quick-witted scientist and a scarred
ex-combat diver against a ruthless billionaire treasure hunter with ties
to the White House.
When biologist Gillian Campbell makes an offhand comment about a family
curse during a TV interview, she has no idea what her words will set in
motion. Within days, Gillian finds herself at the mercy of a member of
the C7, a secretive international group of power brokers with a
dangerous game: competing to find the world's most elusive treasures, no
matter the cost, in money or in lives. To save her family, Gillian teams
up with Shane Burke, a former elite diver who's lost his way, navigating
the brutal "death coast" of the North Atlantic to find what the
collector seeks: the legendary Ruby Cross of the Knights Templar, stolen
by Gillian's ancestor and lost at sea four hundred years ago.
