A fishing trip turns deadly for a young journalist off the pirates. When Butch Sands agreed to go fishing with a wealthy New York City businessman and his cast of nomadic characters, the thought of lurking Cuban pirates never crossed his mind, and the surreal devastation of a terrorist attack on American soil made his desire to get home to Hailey Thomas an impossible reality. After their boat is seized on the open water, his only hope for survival lies underground on a nameless island south of Key West. He is forced to trust a complete stranger who promises a hidden fortune of cash and silver in exchange for their lives - and when everything unravels, an unlikely hero arises. Praise for Jonathan Herbert "In Silver King, terrorism and piracy are very much alive in the twenty-first century. Herbert highlights both of these absolute truths in this suspenseful adventure, played out beyond the southern-most tip of Florida." -Gulf Coast Times "Herbert finds a way to reel you in to a disconnected paradise where wealth trumps justice, most of the time." -Cincinnati Enquirer for Banyan Street "A riveting, engaging first effort by a budding author with talent." -Englewood Sun for Banyan Street "Herbert is right on point with his novel. Suspenseful, intriguing, and a little shocking." -Gulf Coast Times for Banyan Street
