Aprašymas

A pot of gold at the end of a rainbow. Buried plunder and deathbed curses. Jinxes and fabulous treasures. The hunt for mythical or ill-gotten gains has a long history. Yet, the result is often not wealth but rather something terrible. Read about the pursuit of riches turning to heartbreak in this mesmerizing story collection!

While some of these tales of treasure hunts might seem the stuff of legend, could there be more to them? 32 stories of reward, riches, greed, and ruin are collected in Lost Loot: Cursed Treasures and Blood Money, including ...

Curses, deaths, and centuries old treasure on Oak Island

Searchers hunted down and killed before finding a gangster's stolen riches

The eternal quest for D.B. Cooper and his hijack ransom

Elaborate booby traps protecting ill-gotten gains

Cursed Aztec wealth lost as it journeyed to Spain

Mysterious caves holding secrets in the Grand Canyon

The train-robbing Robin Hood myth of the Sam Bass Gang

Daniel Boone and the lost silver mine

Civil War coins hurriedly stashed after a brutal reign of terror

And the stories of dozens of other doomed pursuits of plundered riches.

Tales of bewitching riches and hunts gone wrong, yet hope springs eternal. Lost Loot unfolds like a treasure map--but beware of the hidden, deadly obstacles!
