The Story: Molly Coolridge receives a diary that tells of a treasure ship sunk off Canada's West Coast in 1811. Is this true? Has anyone found it yet? All questions she and her son ask themselves as they begin an archival search in England to find out more. Amy, an outgoing history teacher from Victoria, BC, comes into their lives as do many other interesting characters as their search travels to Spain and Portugal and then to the Long Beach area of Vancouver Island, Canada.

With such international flavour and highly enjoyable characters, 'Treasure' will not disappoint Robert and Joyce's fans (teen to adult) as they add a new sense of drama and intrigue to their repertoire, not previously seen in their earlier books.

After the success of their 2nd Gold Medal performance with Whispers Across Time, this winning husband and wife team have again joined forces to utilize their love of history and genealogy to weave a fascinating and exciting adventure/mystery of a lost 18th century Spanish sailing ship.

Utilizing some well-known facts concerning the Spain and its present-day claims to shipwrecks, the authors weave an entertaining tale of modern treachery, romance and mystery as two conniving factions "Race For A Treasure."
