William, a privateer wronged by nobility throughout his childhood, sees his chance for revenge on the upper class when he has an opportunity to raid an English ship carrying Kathryne, whom he believes to be a spoiled young noblewoman.

On their first anniversary, William must leave Kathryne to search for the Spanish pirates who invaded their home and stole a vast treasure of gold.

Authors Jim and Terri Kraus conclude their trilogy of Treasures of the Caribbean in "Journey to the Crimson Sea." The 17th-century Caribbean island of Barbados hosts this unique story of love, loyalty, and adventure. The meaning of forgiveness is tested as Vicar Thomas Mayhew falls in love with the reformed prostitute Eileen Palmerston. Their relationship is questioned by many on the island, including Vicar Petley, who seeks to excommunicate Thomas for bringing shame to the church. Thomas faces a difficult choice: Stay with the woman he plans to marry or retain his position as vicar. And no swashbuckling adventure would be complete without a search for buried treasure and a final clash with pirates on the high seas. "Journey to the Crimson Sea" delivers romance, adventure, and spiritual insights in an exotic setting that all readers can enjoy.
