From the maelstrom of Cape Horn to murder on the high seas. From cutthroats in Zanzibar to death temples in Tahiti. And finally to seething intrigues in Maui. This epic story ricochets from lust and danger to betrayal and love. Each in pursuit of their own separate and perilous quest—correspondent/adventuress Samantha Swift and rogue secret agent Jack Dancer cross paths in the “hellhole of the Pacific” only to find themselves in the middle of a struggle between two superpowers. Each power vying for domination of the Pacific. Each one believing that Napoleon’s Malta treasure—missing for fifty years—is key to their conquests. But only one can find the lost trove first. And the penalty for failure is death. Dan Gooder Richard delivers an adventurous new tale with The Fishhook Rebellion in this thrilling sequel to his acclaimed The Good or Evil Side. After a successful career in marketing and publishing Dan turned his full-time attention to writing historical adventures. He lives in Virginia with his Swedish-speaking Finnish-born wife. Their forty-plus year life/work partnership-without the loggerheads-inspired the Swift & Dancer Adventures.
