There is a legend--one among many--about a Pirate treasure hoard. No one has ever found it, of course. Those historians who believe in its existence argue about when the hoard was hidden, and when the gold was stolen. Some of them guess the fifteenth century; others wildly propose the fourth century Anno Domini. No matter when it was made, not one sign of it has been discovered; and the sunken shipwreck has never been uncovered. That is, until the momentous twentieth century, when an innocent young sailor sets out for England with his newly wed wife, Elaine. On their journey from America, a fierce storm assails them. Will they survive? What will they discover?
