Blue Dog and the Seven Cities of Gold (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781609113735)

A 16th-century captain and his crew are on their way back to Spain from South America, carrying a king's ransom in gold and jewels in the hulls of their seven majestic ships, when a cyclone scuttles the fleet, stranding them on the northern shores of wildest Australia. Taking what remains of the treasure, the surviving crew discovers a network of underground caves where they decide to hide their fortune...which may never be seen again. Five hundred years later, amateur prospector Jim Taylor and his friend, Billy Coolta, stumble across clues that could uncover the mystery of the seven Spanish ships. But their treasure hunt turns into a deadly manhunt as South American gangsters appear hot on their trail, eager to claim the lost treasure in their quest for the fabled Seven Cities of Gold. With the help of a burly chopper pilot, his feisty, smart-mouthed niece, and Jim's faithful Australian blue heeler, Jim and Billy must find a way to not only outsmart their pursuers, but also survive the dangers of Australia's Top End in their attempt to find the lost treasure of the Incas. Author Bio: The vast wilderness of Australia and countless travel adventures inspired P.A. Hoare to create the first novel in his Blue Dog series. His next book, Blue Dog and the Pharaoh's Tomb, is forthcoming. Raised in the countryside of South Australia, Mr. Hoare owns and operates a trucking service and resides near McLaren Vale, South Australia.
