American criminology professor Marin Ryan and billionaire computer genius John Hunter are drawn into a homicide investigation when one of Marin's colleagues is murdered in Italy. Her friend's historical research uncovered a connection between sixteenth century pirates and three present-day wealthy families.

In this world of private jets, luxury yachts, and Italian villas, the chase leads Marin and John from Capri to New York to Hawaii and back, putting their lives in constant danger.

A reader of the Ryan-Hunter series wrote, "Kept me up all night. Intrigue at its best." Another reader said, " Nonstop adventure and excitement. . . Loved it," and another added, ". . .totally unexpected surprises appearing often. Suspense, intrigue, and 'glitter' all in one package."
