Description

The three notorious Santa Barbara sailors...Tom, Ernie and Emmet are back and once again wreaking havoc and inadvertently uncovering clandestine plots in this third adventure by Harris T. Vincent. Only this time the action takes place in Paris, France. After being dismissed from the Santa Barbara Yacht Club for questionable behavior during a regatta, the three wander up to Brophy's restaurant where they spot an ad in a sailing magazine recruiting experienced sailors to crew in the Rolex Cup in San Tropez. They apply and are hired by a scion of international finance, whose duplicitous business ventures are under the scrutiny of the U.S. Treasury Department. Upon arrival in Paris, the three meet with the banking titan and another mysterious boat captain named Ronando, a rogue who seems to walk on both sides of the law in the City of Lights. What soon becomes apparent is that a nefarious plot by the bankers to destroy the world's economies to their enrichment is being put into play.
