Book Details
A search for Spanish gold, plus love and murder on the banks of North Florida's Santa Fe River
Set in the turbulent 1960s, Miranda’s Gold follows a young man named Charlie who is riveted by his uncle Joe’s story of Spanish gold buried near one of the springs along Florida’s Santa Fe River. His quest for the gold will take Charlie from a murder on the river in the 1930s, to meeting a beautiful, mysterious Spanish girl in high school, to the despair of Vietnam, to the Archives in Seville, and back to where it all began—with another murder in his uncle’s stilt house on the Santa Fe. Charlie’s life will be forever changed due to his pursuit of Miranda’s Gold.
