The Dead Man's Treasure (Southwest Treasure Hunters Book 2)
Kris Bock, author

Adult; Romance; (Market)

Rebecca Westin is shocked when the grandfather she never knew leaves her a bona fide buried treasure – but only if she can decipher a complex series of clues leading to it. The hunt would be challenging enough without interference from her half-siblings, who are determined to find the treasure first and keep it for themselves. Good thing Rebecca has recruited some help, in the form of a green-eyed charmer determined to show her that a desert adventure can be sexy and fun. But there’s a treacherous wildcard, a man willing to do anything to get that treasure – and revenge. Action and romance combine in this lively Southwestern adventure, complete with riddles the reader is invited to solve to identify historical and cultural sites around New Mexico.
Reviews
Bock adds a clever interactive twist, tempting recipes, and endearing characters to this chaste and somewhat formulaic romantic thriller, which is linked to The Mad Monk’s Treasure but stands well on its own. Instead of leaving each of his grandchildren a tidy sum, Rebecca Westin’s millionaire grandfather left them a series of winner-take-all clues to a buried fortune. Camie Dagneau and Erin Mayer (familiar to readers of the first book) have plenty of treasure-hunting expertise, and Rebecca, estranged from her relatives because her father abandoned her, needs all the help she can get. Camie and Erin’s friend Sam offers to help with the search, and it’s all good, suspenseful fun as Rebecca and Sam traipse the New Mexico desert, deciphering clues and trying to outwit Rebecca’s half siblings. Though the plot is spare in the romance department, there’s plenty of suspense, as well as abundant touristy tips and tastes of the Southwest. (BookLife)
