Dead Mens' Chests (Dark Sails)
It is a favorite pastime in Southern Louisiana taverns to speak of the Dread Pirate LaBelle and his cursed treasure. In hushed tones and careful whispers, drunken storytellers regale the interested with descriptions of a sinking ship and LaBelle's cursed treasures lost among the marshes.
For Trevor, these stories are more than just rumors. Trevor thinks that he's tracked down the map to LaBelle's final resting place, and a guide who is brazen enough to take them there. With the first puzzle piece to a centuries-long riddle is in his grasp, Trevor and his friends expect the adventure of a lifetime.
But there's a reason that LaBelle's treasure has never been found. And old, dead pirates don't like to tell their tales.
"Dead Men's Chests plays like a modern day sequel to The Mummy, giving readers the promise of adventure before dropping us into a house of endless horrors. Much like the author's pirate antagonist Labelle hoarding cursed trinkets, Sterling has infused his tightly-plotted story with a plethora of surprising and disturbing horror concepts, crafting a series of nightmares for our core explorers. It's the most fun you'll have being scared this year."
-Joey Powell, author of Nightmares From the Gray
