“A Pirate Looks At Forty” by Chip Bell is now available at Amazon.com.
The murder of a retired United States Senator and his wife seemed like an open and shut case for Jake Sullivan until his prime suspect turned out to be a member of the Mossad, Israel’s elite intelligence agency. Instead, Chip Bell’s fourth novel, A Pirate Looks at Forty, takes Jake on a hunt for the leader of a renegade Israeli army faction intent on changing its’ country’s boundaries. Following a trail that begins with an ancient Hebrew mystic in Medieval Spain and continues with the loss of a sacred relic in the wreck of a Spanish treasure fleet off the Florida coast in 1715, Jake tries to keep South Florida from becoming a war zone that will set the spark to the powder keg that is the Middle East.
