Cave of Secrets

A tale of love, tragedy and discovery

Set against the background of the rugged coastline of the State of Washington's Olympic Peninsula, Cave of Secrets chronicles the search for the wreckage of an ancient Chinese junk that went aground with its' treasure of gold coins and a priceless burial urn.

University of Washington Professor Chuck Coolridge uncovers the story of the junk's voyage while doing research in Taiwan and assembles a search team. Agents of the People's Republic learn of the discovery and set their own plan in motion to recover the treasure.

Links to the events surrounding the shipwreck in 500 AD and a mysterious disappearance in 1966 are revealed as the reader follows the search team along the coastal trails, into the caves that dot the hillsides, and to the Makah museum at the northern most tip of the United States.
