Mystery of the Forgotten Treasure

by Marbury Smith

Each weekday morning, good ole boys, either retired or employed part-time gather in restaurants fare and wide for coffee and camaraderie. One crisp fall day in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, the conversation during one club's breakfast shifts from sports and motorcycles to sleuthing because the house of one of its members has been ransacked. What begins as a little investigation by the six men intent on quickly solving a simple break-in leads to other crimes, all interconnected. The men are unaware of the danger they are courting until one of the suspects is murdered. The pace accelerates when the clues lead to a yacht suspected of harboring the mastermind criminal. A simple surveillance turns into a shooting chase into the Gulf of Mexico. The FBI, Interpol, the US Coast Guard, and US Customs join the pursuit for an international ring of thieves. And finally, the breakfast crew unearths the solution of the Mystery of the Forgotten Treasure.
