Recruiting his friend Benjamin and other valiant companions, he created the Typo Eradication Advancement League (TEAL).

But before the naked fun in the sun can begin, the mutilated bodies of a few burly dockworkers wash up on the sand.

This globe-spanning treasure-hunt adventure is filled with “action, suspense, and excitement . . . Pure escape” (San Francisco Chronicle). Al Colby should never have said yes.
