Better Left Buried: A Novella

Summary

In the golden age of piracy, she was the terror of the Caribbean. Known only as the Red Butcheress, she stalked British ships like a shadow across the waves until one daring man-o’-war managed to sink her. With her reign ended, her ship battered and beaten, she became a legend and just as quickly lost from memory.  Now, with the help of an ancient journal, a team of science students from the University of Tampa has found her wreck. When they begin to probe the ruins for answers, they make a startling discovery. As the tension builds between shipmates, one woman will find that there is more to the wreck than rotten boards and corroded metal. A secret has been buried alongside the Red Butcheress - one that may spell disaster and one that may not let the crew just sail away...
