Book #7 in the Mark Rollins Adventures series has moved to editing. The story is a short one, a little over 30,000 words compared to 55,000 for the typical murder mystery. However, this is not a murder mystery and that was the number of words needed to tell the story of buried stollen gold and a two hundred year old diary that contains the direction to the treasure—if you are smart enough to figure it out.

The unique cover is the idea and design of Tom Trebing who has designed all prior covers. Thomas King Lusty, Trebing’s Great, Great Grandfather, was born at Near Stroud, King Stanley, Gloucestershire UK on February 2, 1799 and died in the US on August 2, 1884 at age 85. He was a ships carpenter and, except for a short role in the Civil War building fortifications around Chattanooga, he traveled the world. Throughout his seafaring life, Thomas Lusty kept a diary. It is that two hundred year old diary that served as the model for the cover of Treasure of the Diary.
