Book excerpt: For as long as I can remember, treasure hunters have been captivated by accounts of the Dutchman Jacob Waltz's life and the whereabouts of his hidden gold mine. Can any tale be more compelling than that long unsolved mystery of millions of dollars of gold lost deep in the Superstition Mountains? Yes - the REAL story, that will keep you on the edge of your seat! In Dutchman and the Devil: The Lost Story I examine the tangled trail of truth and fiction that is Waltz's legacy and tell the tale of a man - and his shadowy undiscovered partner - who cheat, connive, manipulate, and murder their way through the wicked old west, leaving a trail of blood, bodies and broken promises that over the years have been lost in the wake of the commonly accepted family friendly legend. Friends who got a whiff of this story couldn't wait for the next chapter of the spectacular spaghetti western that sprang from my typewriter. Be among the first to read my story of the Dutchman and the Devil - but cross your heart and promise not to reveal its startling secret.

Book excerpt: 'They are blight upon the world; truly that ship is the avatar of Satan!' The Flying Dutchman is a portent of doom to all that sail the seven seas. Damned in the 14th century for the foolish oath of their Captain that they would sail until Judgement day, the only possibility for its crew to earn redemption and so be allowed to finally pass on from this world is for their cruel Captain, Vanderdecken, to gain the devotion of a young outsider and have them pledge to spend their lives aboard the ship. It is only every twenty years that Vanderdecken may leave his ship and step on the shores and spend seven days searching for this person who will set him free. When he chooses Gail Duxx, niece and ward of renowned privateer Halzara Duxx to take back to the Dutchman with him, a catastrophic chain of events occur as Halzara and his men pursue the Damned across the sea to Cape Horn, unknowing that all of their fates are predetermined in the stars and the sacrifices they will have to make as they face the devil at sea.
