about this book: "Silver" continues the adventures of OSR agents Park Skarda and April Force, introduced in my first thriller, "Emerald". It's a fast-paced, adrenaline-charged, fun ride, much akin to the works of Andy McDermott, James Rollins, Clive Cussler, and Matthew Reilly!

Here is a brief description of the plot:
When a volcanic eruption destroyed the island of Thera in 1600 BCE, the fleeing inhabitants carried away with them a huge hoard of silver. But this silver wasn't pure—it contained quantities of a rare earth element known as neosamarium, an element vital to the military strength of the United States, and one that the Chinese will pay a small fortune to get their hands on.

Facing betrayals, danger, and certain death, Skarda, April, and Nathaniel Bennett, a genius Minoan scholar, hunt through forgotten caves and buried temples across the breadth of Crete, Turkey, and Cyprus, pursued by a ruthless female pirate, a cold-blooded mercenary, and an unscrupulous black market art collector in a deadly race to find the fabled treasure before it's too late.

"Silver" is approximately 52,000 words or 210 printed pages. I like to write books that serve as pure entertainment and I hope you all enjoy them! I'm currently getting ready to publish "Diamond", the third adventure!
