The Adventures of Jeremy Nelson

Book cover for The Adventures of Jeremy Nelson

A duel to the death is just the beginning

“Jeremy, the time has come to settle this thing between us,” said Samual Hogarth.

The ‘thing’ is a duel to the death over the woman both men want. But duels are illegal in 1888, and afterward Jeremy flees Florida for a life of adventure as a merchant seaman. In a dice game in Morocco he wins a slave girl who had escaped from an Emir’s harem, only to learn young Diana Mitchells is an American, the daughter of a rich man who had established an ‘ideal society’ colony on a Cape Verde island. And he left behind a buried fortune in gold and jewels.

To win girl and fortune, Jeremy sets out on the greatest adventure of his life. But Aberim, dangerous, capable son and heir of the Emir, has already claimed Diana’s love. Now he wants both her and the fortune. And only one man can live to claim both.
