 From award-winning authors J. Robert Whittle and Joyce Sandilands comes a new international adventure  / mystery novel.

Race For A Treasure has a myriad of wonderful characters and events move along as all of the Whittle’s page-turning novels tend to do. The novel uses Spain’s well-known reaction of suing anyone who locates an old Spanish shipwreck containing treasure so they can claim it as their own.

The Coolridge Family is not about to let them in on

their secret, however, and try desperately to outwit them as they travel halfway around the world to Vancouver Island, BC. Adding a little romance to the plot adds a different twist as the family confides in several people willing to help them along the way. Travelling across the South of England and then to Spain turns it into a rollicking cops and robber-type mystery. Tossed into the mix is a generous amount of history and international locations.

Again, a Whittlesque novel that will surely be enjoyed by young and old alike … and, at last, a novel for teen boys!
