AN ANDRIETTA SLOAN ADVENTURE Andy Sloan has been sent by Dr. Porter Gaven to acquire publishing rights to diaries written aboard the Mayflower by pilgrim John Alden. When Andy visits George Alden, owner, she sees him dead and his cabin tossed. Andy finds the diaries under the floor, grabs the bag containing them, and loads them into her vehicle, fleeing for her life. When she looks inside Volume II, she discovers what the villains were really after: The diaries are not just historically significant; their contents could lead to the whereabouts of priceless treasures and the discovery of an ancient scroll that could unlock the secret to the origin of Christianity itself; even foretell the end of the age.
