When Tom and his wife were run off the road and left for dead, Sam Decker got pissed.

Treasure maps in the Florida Keys are nothing unusual. But maps that somebody is willing to kill for are more unusual. As Decker and his friends begin the search for the treasure, a group of unsavory treasure hunters try to scare him off. But Sam Decker doesn't scare easy.
