Redcliff Marine Rescue recruit Shiraz Jones is in deep water again, as pirate legends from the past resurface in the small town.

When a fisherman vanishes near an uninhabited island with a gruesome history, Shiraz believes this wasn't an accident. An international consortium plans to build a luxury resort on the rocky isle, and she suspects they've reawakened the pirate stories to dispose of their opponents.

But when a mysterious visitor with a familiar name arrives from the city, Shiraz must discover whether he can help her stop the developers, or whether he's her biggest threat.

Because dead bodies tell no tales. And if Shiraz can't untangle the swashbuckling fables, she might find herself in Davy Jones' locker.
