1818:In the Gulf waters off the Texas coast, the pirate
Jean Lefitte and his partner Jim Bowie launch an attack on
the Mother Mary, a slave ship carrying an invaluable
treasure.
The Present:Fifth-generation Texas Ranger Caitlin Strong
finds herself investigating the murder of the oil-rig crew
that had found the long-lost wreckage of the Mother Mary.
The crew also uncovered something else beneath the surface
of the sea--something connected to a terrorist attack about
to be launched by a mad American-born cleric who has
recruited an army of homegrown terrorists.
With the stakes higher than any she has encountered before,
Caitlin races to find the connection between the secret
treasure of the Mother Mary and the deadly secret hidden on
the bottom of the ocean.
Caitlin's only chance to defeat the terrorists lies in the
darkest reaches of the Louisiana bayou. In the end, only
the strongest of vengeance can win the day.
