9. WHISPERS OF THE SUNKEN SHIP – THE RED RUBY SERIES
A respected sea captain, Simon Verbeeck, is summoned by the Governor of the Cape of Good Hope for an urgent mission. A Dutch vessel, the Sluiskerk, has vanished without a trace, and whispers of resurgent pirates along the treacherous West African coast fill the air. Driven by a sense of duty and a thirst for the mysteries of the sea, Simon embarks on a perilous journey aboard his ship, The Red Ruby.
What begins as a search for a missing ship quickly spirals into a desperate hunt for a young woman, the Governor’s niece, who was aboard the vanished vessel. Simon’s quest leads him to a chilling discovery. He found a longboat adrift at sea, carrying the dead, gold bars, and a crude map hinting at a hidden danger deep within the African interior.
Simon plunges into the unknown, navigating treacherous deserts, battling hostile tribes and pirates and a cunning and powerful pirate who holds all the cards, and a dark secret that could change his destiny forever. As he unravels the mysteries, each revelation leads him deeper into peril. Will he locate the missing girl? What is the secret of the gold? And will he ever see the sea again, or will he join the crew of lost souls who perished on this desolate African shore?
This tale of courage and betrayal, with its pulse-pounding action and hidden truths, will draw you into the heart of adventure, leaving you breathless until the very last page.
