'An Adventure story of the recovery of lost Chinese gold, that came from the Palmer River alluvial gold fields in Queensland. Vince Cousins was a happy contented man. After serving over 20 years in the RAAF he retired to Cairns and now spends every fine weekend on his Boat 'Friday'; cruising, fishing or diving on the Great Barrier Reef. An encounter with a Chinese academic was to change his idyllic lifestyle into the most dangerous thrill ride of his life. Against his better judgement, he and his crew are pitch forked into a search for lost gold. On the way, they have to battle enormous sharks, cyclones and Triad killers. After retrieving the gold they then have to outwit the Australian customs, fight pirates, and run the gauntlet of Chinese customs; and finally fool the Chinese secret police.' (Publisher's blurb)
