About this audiobook
Young history Professor Jack Turner is settling into his new position at Culpepper University, when he gets a surprise visit from his friend, police Sgt. Joe Boyd. Joe has started a new hobby, a fun pastime that's also helping him lose some weight-metal detecting. Joe asks if he can do this on Jack's lakefront property, which includes over a dozen acres of woods. Intrigued by a hobby that combines physical exercise and Jack's love of history, Jack asks to tag along. Neither man has any idea that this seemingly harmless hobby will cause their paths to cross with a seventy-year-old mystery involving tragedy, smuggling, multiple murders, and stolen Nazi loot. It's just an innocent hobby, Jack tells his wife, Rachel. Really, what could go wrong?

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Very interesting story with a plot within a plot with the historical WWII information. Finally someone is writing good stories without cussing and explicit sexual innuendos.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5We all grew up with the childhood rule of finders keepers, losers weepers. But have we ever thought of the ramifications of that notion? Perilous Treasure by Dan Walsh, book 4 of his Jack Turner Suspense Series made me go a little deeper in my thoughts on the matter. The characters in this novel all deal with the reality of a found treasure and the ethics of keeping it or taking it away. The treasure in question is Nazi loot stolen from Jewish people sent to the extermination camps. No ethics involved there, but as it makes its way from Germany to the United States through many hands, questions arise. The novel is pure suspense with some bad guys out to claim the treasure no matter what. There seems to be little crisis of conscience there, but other characters who are mostly good, but of course human, struggle as well. I found the question of what is right and what is wrong in found items to be thought-provoking. As always, Walsh keeps his readers a bit off-balance and turning the pages as quickly as possible. With both those assets, Perilous Treasure is perfect for book clubs that like suspense fiction. My husband and I have been making our way through this series via audiobooks. Both of us found excuses to listen as often as we could. For men and women, alike, you cannot go wrong with this book or series.Recommended.Audience: adults.(I purchased the audiobook from Audible.
