Sea Hunter by D. V. Stone

      On the turbulent high seas, an archeologist must protect a historic shipwreck from treasure hunters—not fall for one.

 About the Book:

It is the duty of Zahra Corbyn, an underwater archeologist and professor of antiquities, stop treasure hunters and looters from raiding Sea Wraith. But she finds herself with treasure hunter Jack Alexander in order to protect history from a known looter.

Captain Jack Alexander needs two pieces of a map, currently in the possession of Zahra Corbyn to finally claim Sea Wraith. Can the two unlikely allies work together while safeguarding their hearts against the power of the Mortar and Pestle?

 

Our Review: While this is a fun story, filled with non-stop action, it is also a reflection of those years following World War II when women were expected to ‘stay in their place’, treasure hunters abounded, often pillaging the world’s history, and a potent reminder of racism. The author’s in-depth research is astonishing, which only adds to the enjoyable read factor. Well done!

 

Based on a scale of 1-5, Sea Hunter merits a 6.
