    About this audiobook

    It's 1941, and Captain Alexander M. Riley and his crew of deep-sea treasure hunters believe they're setting off on yet another adventure-to find a mysterious artifact off the coast of Morocco for an enigmatic millionaire with questionable motives. Part-time smugglers, world travelers, and expats who have fought causes both valiant and doomed, Riley and his crew soon find themselves in the crosshairs of a deal much more dangerous than the one they bargained for. From Spain to Morocco to an Atlantic crossing that leads to Washington, DC, Captain Riley must sail his ship, the Pingarrón, straight through the eye of a ruthless squall and into a conspiracy that goes by the name Operation Apokalypse-a storm that only he and his crew can navigate.

      AWESOME all I cannot say is MORE PLEASE. Thanks for the hours of entertainment ????
    • 2/5
      I really liked this book through the first ten and one half chapters. It reminded me of an Indiana Jones adventure: a great treasure hunt, Nazi's, a patchwork quilt crew, fights, plus a leading character who repeatedly escapes seemingly hopeless situations. Alas, I have to pan the book. First, the author throws in a meaningless intimate scene, then another. Finally, when ready to forgive and forget those pandering features, he invokes the name of a true hero and friend of the United States as a someone scheming for the destruction of an American city. I'll pass on any additional adventures of Captain Riley or other works by Mr. Gamboa.
