Barnaby and Philo’s story starts with very bad chili and a dead body.

Barnaby Swift is in St. Augustine, Florida to teach a college seminar in historic methodology, and plans to use The Secret, a treasure hunt, as a framework for his class. He enlists Philo Brice, owner of an antique map store, to aid him in seeking clues in the historic sites of the ancient city.

Together they face murderers, thieves, thugs, and fanatics, heightening their already strong attraction to each other. Can they solve the puzzle and unearth the treasure before the villains do? Hidden Gem: the Secret of St. Augustine takes the reader down several twisting paths before arriving at a startling conclusion.
