The curse of Oak Island will claim seven lives before the treasure is revealed.
But what if those 7 people aren't dying?
Maeve Duffey is a former treasure hunter, haunted by the loss of her mother who disappeared while searching Oak Island. Though she tries to leave the past behind her, moving on as a history professor, her life is stuck 10 years in the past where her childhood ended. But the past never stays hidden for long. Forced to make a choice: Travel through time to the Golden Age of Piracy and kill the infamous pirate known only as the Admiral, Maeve will risk everything to find her mother. Her decision will land her on the shores of New Providence Island, in a society on the brink of war, where pirates operate freely and one man fights to exterminate them.
Armed with a medallion that has a strange inscription on it, and the power of knowledge, Maeve will cross the divide between time and space in a desperate search for her mother. In this story of loss, forgiveness, love, divided loyalties, and war. Maeve will learn that the quest for answers doesn't always lead you to the truth you desire, and the forces beyond understanding always get in the way.
