Take a deep breath, kick off your shoes and lets go. A sensual tropical mystery awaits.

'Hemingway's Heist' is a story of adventure, romance and stolen treasure. It begins on July 8, 1943 when the wealthiest man in the world, Reginald Vining, is killed in his home in Bimini and a fortune in gold bars disappears.

The accused murderer, Baron Alfred Brovania de Maurice, is acquitted but run out of the Bahamas as an “undesirable.” He flees to Key West and refuge with his friend Ernest Hemingway. The (remote) possibility that the two of them might have stolen Vining’s gold is the premise of the story.

In 2013, a dusty old trunk left in the storeroom of a Key West bar yields clues that ignite a modern day treasure hunt. Join the quirky crews of the Marion ll and the Albatross as they chase myths, legends and lies around the Caribbean trying to solve a 70-year-old mystery.

"I fell in love with Key West many years ago. In this story I have tried to capture the wackiness of Fantasy Fest. The body art, the partying, the weird and wonderful. Then take the reader to Bimini, Eleuthera and Spanish Wells while searching for a fortune in lost gold. One crew is led by an obsessively organized buttoned up former Navy Seal on a perfectly equipped boat. He is chased by the great grand son of the accused 1943 murderer and his drunken sidekick in a boat held together by chicken wire and duct tape."

Up until now the murder has never been solved and the gold never found. Could this band of adventurers and misfits stumble onto a fortune?

'Hemingway's Heist' joins 'Side Effects' and 'Mingo's Cave' by Chuck Ball at Amazon. Look for 'No Redeeming Qualities' in the Spring of 2015.
