Dead Gold

Based on a true story, this epic treasure hunt bridges generations from World War II to the World Wide Web. Unlike other adventure stories, the hero is not a superman nor blessed with exceptional intellect. Anders ACatch@ Ferguson is not particularly suave or gifted. He operates a drilling rig and mows his lawn on weekends. He=s just a regular guy with a mortgage and a family to feed until he gets a call from an old friend in the Philippines. The friend offers him a job to do some drilling. Only after a serious accident does he learn what he is drilling for.

The fortune in Japanese gold that he eventually finds becomes a mere distraction from the real treasure that drives him forward. He is manipulated, betrayed, bombed, shot, and abandoned on a remote island. As with all real heroes, physical and emotional trials can not extinguish the fire deep inside. Catch learns that life is its own adventure and pure love is the only true treasure.
