| Publisher Description: The year is 1861, and in Charleston South Carolina, insurrection, and the Civil War begins. Captain Hunter's small fleet of ships is commandeered. His mission: Rendezvous with a British man of war to exchange gold for armament and munitions. Unfortunate circumstances prevail. The ship sinks and all is lost except the captain and three crewmembers. Marooned for three years, he is devastated by his loss upon his return, while his brother Richard squanders the family wealth. Fearful of reprisals, he returns to Little Abaco in the Bahamas. Years pass, hatred consumes the family over false pretenses, and Richards lies. His daughter Jane's dedication to her father prevails until the truth is known. The year is 1946 and in New York, Captains Hunter's nephew David Hunter prepares for a vacation. What he is about to learn will change his life forever. His destination is the northernmost regions of the Bahamas, Little Abaco. Little Abaco and the Golden Empress is filled with adventure, intrigue, romance, and treasure hunting covering a span of over a hundred years, touching exciting and romantic places such as New York, South Carolina, Florida, Cuba, and the Bahama Islands. |
