About Bay of Devils by Grahame Shannon:
In 1918 the Canadian liner SS Princess Sophia sank in Alaska with 350 souls aboard. All perished when the ship, stranded on Vanderbilt reef, slid off into deep water. Fifty years later, Cindy Lu, a waitress at a Vancouver cafe finds an old flask. The message inside is from a passenger on the doomed ship to his sweetheart. She delivers it to the original address, which is nearby.
Elizabeth Hadley, now in her seventies, reads the letter with excitement. She hires detectective and sailor Sean Gray to lead an expedition and unravel the mystery. He tracks down Cindy, and the chemistry between them is immediate.
Lizzy introduces the crew of her 110-foot classic yacht Lady L, including Ajax, an acid-tongued parrot. With Cindy as cook, and Levi, a mysterious Israeli ex-soldier, providing security, Sean prepares for the voyage to Alaska.
However, they aren’t alone.
There are others after the booty, and they are willing to kill anyone who gets in their way.
So, with pirates hot on their trail, will they find the treasure and unlock the secret behind the half-century-old mystery? Find out in Bay of Devils, an Amazon #1 best seller on the day of release.
