From the bustling streets of New York City to the cobblestones of Seville and the silver mines high in the Andes Mountains of Bolivia, Carmen is off on another quest to stop VILE in this heart-pounding caper full of twists and turns! For centuries, the magnificent Throne of Felipe has stood with two empty spaces beside its famous silver arrow--spaces where the silver castle and lion should have been. And now, with the recent discovery of the silver castle within a secret vault in Seville, Spain, the hunt is on for the third silver icon. With all three pieces in the place, the throne will be enormously valuable--making it a hot item on VILE's radar. Now it's up to Carmen and crew to find the silver lion before VILE does, and protect the throne from winding up in the wrong hands.

Of all the myths, legends, and stories, one man’s hidden treasure stands above the rest. Jonathan Swift’s lost silver mines have been woven into legend and passed from one generation to the next for more than 230 years. Beginning with an introduction by the late Michael Paul Henson, nationally known treasure expert, this comprehensive volume explores the legend of this enigmatic character who mined the mountains of Appalachia from 1761 until 1769. Unable to remove his entire cache of silver when he left the region, Swift hid much of his treasure in the mines. When he returned in the late 1700s to retrieve the secret caches, he was unable to locate them. During this time, copies of a journal kept by Swift (giving directions and clues to the hidden stashes) were sold and/or given away. Steely has collected and compared legends from across the region, found maps and old journals, and compiled all the information in this interesting, organized book for treasure hunters and historians. Drawing upon treasure lore from the Shawnee, Cherokee, Spanish, French, and Melungeons, this work spans Kentucky, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, Ohio, North Carolina, and Alabama.

In this thoroughly researched work, David M. Gitlitz traces the lives and fortunes of three clusters of sixteenth-century crypto-Jews in Mexico's silver mining towns. Previous studies of sixteenth-century Mexican crypto-Jews focus on the merchant community centered in Mexico City, but here Gitlitz looks beyond Mexico's major population center to explore how clandestine religious communities were established in the reales, the hinterland mining camps, and how they differed from those of the capital in their struggles to retain their Jewish identity in a world dominated economically by silver and religiously by the Catholic Church. In Living in Silverado Gitlitz paints an unusually vivid portrait of the lives of Mexico's early settlers. Unlike traditional scholarship that has focused mainly on macro issues of the silver boom, Gitlitz closely analyzes the complex workings of the haciendas that mined and refined silver, and in doing so he provides a wonderfully detailed sense of the daily experiences of Mexico's early secret Jews.

This novel is a true story! I was a part of it. In 1974 a wealthy industrialist bought the oldest silver mine in the USA. in Lancaster County. The mine had been abandoned for over 100 years when the lower shafts broke into the water table. Once they were drained out super-rich veins of silver were rediscovered. I was the one sent down to see what was there. The discovery was kept a secret, except for the few who knew.The industrialist went on a 14-year quest to uncover the mineral wealth by opening up a quarry. The township refused. They were never told of the silver there.He bided his time and meanwhile opened up a huge campground and vbenue for country-music stars. From 1974 to 1988 every country-music star in the country went there and entertained over 500,000 people. He figured that, in time, new supervisors would come and he would get his way. He never did. He died, unexpectedly, in 1988, taking his high ambition and his secret with him. Except for me! Now I tell you the story, the truth, untold for all this time. The silver mine is a 300-acre park which can be visited by the general public. But there is no one there to tell the storied past. Except me. Read it here first! Then go and see it for yourself! Christopher Haefner is also the author the 2006 thriller, The Cuz.
