Except the children who might still be alive.
Trout and Sage Blackwell are exploring a pirate wreck in the Dominican Republic when a recovered clue leads them to a remote beach—and the bones of a child.
But the trail leads inland, toward people with the money to buy silence and the men to enforce it. Asking questions is enough to draw their attention. Finding answers could make the Blackwells the next people to disappear.
