Fifteen-year-old Noah is shipped off to the Bahamas to spend time with a man he barely knows: his biological father Magnus.

His mother had always depicted Magnus as a penniless drifter so Noah is surprised to discover that he runs an archaeological consultancy from an amazing yacht equipped with military-grade security. Desperate to forge a bond with his father, Noah asks to be included in the consultancy’s next assignment – the search for a mysterious medieval ring.

Together with young uni drop-out Viggo and unrequited crush Isabelle, he follows the ring’s trail from Mexico to Sicily. But someone else is after it. Someone who will stop at nothing to lay his hands on it.

As Noah faces danger after danger to delve into the ring's mystery, he discovers the truth about his father. And it’s a revelation that will change his life forever.

**First in a series**

PRAISE FOR THE TWELFTH RING

“A great suspense mystery drama played out in the Bahamas. A cross between a Dirk Pitt and Indiana Jones adventure.”

“A seamless blend of adventure and comedy. Yet it is gripping you at every twist.”

“Great read. Compelling story, adventurous and fun! Looking forward to the next one.”

"This book is a fast-paced and fun young adult adventure story. The action begins when Noah is sent to spend the summer with his practically unknown father in the Caribbean. Magnus (his father) is a free-lance archaeologist, martial arts expert, and secret keeper. It’s a treasure hunt that travels the world. There is nothing overly complex. The villains are villains, through and through. Tales of the Crusades and the Knights Templar are scattered throughout. This book is clearly intended to be the first book of a series since some secrets remain and more adventures are likely. There is some violence, including torture. There is some flirtation and innuendo, but no sex. All in all, it is not inappropriate for teenaged readers. The pacing is brisk, and the pages turn quickly."
