If you have enjoyed Michael Reisig’s best-selling “Road To Key West” novels, you will love his new “Caribbean Gold” series, which begins with “The Treasure of Tortuga.” This first book draws you back in time, to an era of dark-hearted men, captivating women, and a seafaring adventure so real you’ll taste the salt spray. The year is 1668. Englishman Trevor Holte and the audacious freebooter Clevin Greymore, sail from the Port of London for Barbados and the West Indies. They set out in search of adventure and wealth, but the challenges they encounter are beyond their wildest dreams – the brutal Spanish, ruthless buccaneers, a pirate king, the lure of Havana, and the women – as fierce in their desires as Caribbean storms. Then, there was the gold and the emeralds – wealth beyond imagination. But some treasures outlive the men who bury them... A NOTE TO MY READERS: THIS BOOK WAS ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED IN 2001, AS THE FIRST HALF OF A NOVEL CALLED, “BROTHERS OF THE SWORD/CHILDREN OF TIME.” With the encouragement of friends, I have rewritten and republished that novel in two books: “Caribbean Gold - The Treasure of Tortuga,” and “Caribbean Gold – The Treasure of Time.” I hope you enjoy!
