Publisher Description
From the USA Today bestselling author of Serpent and Lost City comes Alamo Gold, an action-packed treasure hunt!
A lost treasure trove, a historical coverup, one man determined to find the truth... and the gold.
Treasure hunter and former Navy SEAL Bones Bonebrake needs a vacation. But things never seem to work out as planned.
When a dying man gives him a treasure map, Bones finds himself on the run from the Knights of the Golden Circle, a secret society that will stop at nothing to find the treasure. But they are not alone in their quest for the treasure. Also standing in his way are a historical revisionist bent on tearing down one of history's most beloved heroes regardless of the truth, and a true believer willing to preserve the legend at any cost.
Lost treasure, secret codes, and historical conspiracies. It's all in a day's work for Bones.
Classic adventure for the modern reader! Fans of National Treasure and Indiana Jones will love the Bones Bonebrake Adventures!

Alamo Gold is another non-stop, action packed, hang-on-to-your-seat adventure as Bones Bonebrake drives to Houston to meet a fellow conspiracy theorist to discuss alien abductions‼️. Gonzales is dead within minutes of Bones’ arrival & with his dying breath gives him a treasure map with a warning not to let them have it‼️😱. From that moment on, Bones is chased, shot at & follows a clue to Galveston where he bumps into Kendra Gill, an old friend & paranormal investigator, now a guide on a ghost tour through the Old City Cemetary where Bones hopes to find another clue! After the tour, they’re chased by men he believes are more Knights of the Golden Circle sent to stop him & steal the map‼️ Bones & Kendra then lead them on a merry chase as they hijack a big yellow rolling boat full of tourists, escaping once again! The two of them are a hoot together as they banter back & forth, work on clues & end up romantically engaged while one of the Knights enters her apartment, steals the map & sets the place afire!

With names like Jim Bowie & Davy Crockett involved as well as the honored history of the Alamo to consider, what legendary secrets will be revealed?
