Overview
Set in the Ocala National Forest in Marion County, Florida, Mike and his best friend Tommy hear a tragic tale about a dead publisher from New York, then discover his hidden treasure at their Florida campground when a fierce thunderstorm upends an old shed. They team with two soldiers of fortune, former Green Berets and CIA agents Bob Rines and Scott Walker, on a quest to rescue Tommy's father, imprisoned in Cuba by Castro after the failed Bay of Pigs invasion years earlier. The boys pay a high price for their adventure; facing escalating danger, fear, and personal challenges at every turn. Mike's family is confused and conflicted when his father joins the quest at the eleventh hour and in a late night shoot out deep in the Forest, kills the one man that can set Tommy's father free. Later that night, a deadly confrontation with a Cuban patrol boat in the Straits of Florida costs Bob Rines his life, and puts Tommy, injured and exhausted, at the helm of a floating coffin to save himself and his father. A dramatic rescue at sea finally brings closure to the quest and revenge for the dead publisher"
