From the blue waters of the Caribbean and the Florida Keys to the wind-swept wilds of the Outer Banks, Pirate Hunter combines the romantic popularity of a pirate tale with an inspirational story of modern-day treasure hunters. Following a captured slave who's been freed by the sixteenth-century pirate who takes his ship, the novel weaves a rollicking tale of adventure. Paralleling this story in the present are the treasure hunters seeking the gold--and stories--of the past. Greg Rhode--a preacher's kid who has become a marine archaeologist--hires on to participate in Phil Rackham's salvage operation in the Florida Keys. He is hoping that Rackham will make him rich, not suspecting the true riches he'll eventually confront.

I liked this story because it was really two stories; one set in the 18th century aboard a pirate ship, and the other one set in the present, about marine archeologists and treasure hunters. I found both stories interesting, but the pirate story was more exciting. The author also tied the two together and even wrote them in such a way that it was almost like similar things were happening to the main characters in both stories. It was ultimately about deciding what really matters in life, riches or people.
