This is by far my favorite Lindsay Chamberlain novel to date. The story is great. The different type of archeology was very interesting. The hurricane part . . . well that was a little far fetched but didn't detract from the story. And I was glad to see both Bobbie and John move to the main story line.

Beverly Connor skillfully intertwines the past with the present in this tale. An archeological crew in 2000 is excavating a Spanish galleon sunk off the coast of Georgia in 1558. It's very interesting how the author switches up the action using a translation of a ships passenger's diary which details pretty much the entire voyage. The main character, Lyndsay Chamberlain, pinpoints certain discoveries with diary entries. It's really neat the way the diary coincides with what the crew is finding at the excavation site. When a skeleton is found, Lyndsay suspects he was murdered and they use the diary to try to solve the mystery.
Apparently a second galleon might be buried relatively close to the ship they are excavating and looters are circling like vultures. Suspicious deaths occur and Lyndsay and a few other crew members are injured. It's a race to find the second ship and solve both mysteries.
This is the fourth Lyndsay Chamberlain mystery in the series but only the first which I've read. I will certainly be adding the other three books to my TBR list. What a great author and a terrific mystery.
