Better Left Buried

In the Golden Age of Piracy, she was the terror of the Caribbean . . . Known only as the Red Butcheress, she stalked British ships like a shadow across the waves until one daring man o’ war managed to sink her. With her reign ended, her ship battered and beaten, she became legend, and just as quickly lost from memory. Now, with the help of an ancient journal, a science team of students from the University of Tampa has found her wreck. When they begin to probe the ruins for answers, they make a startling discovery. As the tension builds between shipmates, one woman will find that there is more to the wreck than rotten boards and corroded metal. A secret has been buried alongside the Red Butcheress—one that may spell disaster. And one that may not let the crew just sail away . . .
