This time around, James Lessor and Skip Moore, the bumbling PIs of More or Less Investigations, have been employed by Mary Trueblood to search for lost gold in the Florida Keys. Mary believes that her great-grandfather, Matthew Kriegel, stole a shipment of gold valued at over a million dollars, which disappeared during a 1935 hurricane. Thinking that it's hidden in the village of Islamorada, she hires James and Skip to locate it. Neither Mary nor our trusty PIs are prepared for what happens next.
They are soon dealing with fierce competitors, a smuggling operation and the murdered body of a previous treasure hunter. Our boys find themselves in a dangerous mission they have no idea how to handle. Will they be able to get out of it alive?
This fifth adventure featuring James Lessor and Skip Moore will keep you entertained with quirky antics, as well as a good mystery.
A 1935 hurricane in the Florida Keys destroyed the East
Coast Railway, killed 500 people and blew away the
town of Islamorada. Lost in that storm was Mathew Kriegel, a
finance director for the railroad, and one and a quarter
million dollars in gold.
Now newly minted private investigators Skip More and James
Lessor, of More Or Less Investigations have been hired to
find that lost treasure. Fighting off competitors, scuba
diving, digging in a spooky cemetery and almost getting
killed is only part of their job. Skip and James have
stumbled onto the biggest most dangerous adventure of their
lives.
