[A "Justice" and Miss Quinn Mystery 05] • The Case of the Hidden Treasure

The rapscallion, Vernon Shelby, continues to hold Magnolia Quinn against her will. Fortunately he is unaware that Justin Blakemoor is along for the ride. Captain Shelby is a dichotomy. One minute he is kind and gentle, providing ginger tea and clothing, while in the next moment he is threatening and brutal. Magnolia accepts the generosity, even wearing a provided gown that shows more than suits her comfort, but she knows his graciousness only extends until he receives what he wants—the treasure. Between Justin and Magnolia they’ve designed a plan that will lead to escape. But will reaching a larger island be enough, or will they need to do more? And if the treasure isn’t to Shelby’s liking, what will be the repercussions?
