The Tunnel Hoard, by Paul Rutherford is a book I recently started that’s really keeping my attention. It’s quite intriguing, and makes me want to lie on the couch and read instead of getting some work done today. Taken from the authors website, (where you can read the first chapter for free) is the following blurb –
World War II, Philippines 1944 – Somewhere in the jungle, Jacob Thomas peers out from behind bamboo bars at his keepers. His sixteen months of captivity has been spent digging a large tunnel into the side of a mountain. The only thing keeping him alive is the promise he made to his wife that he would come home to her.
Almost six decades later in Upstate New York, Connor Mason receives a coded message from his missing father’s estranged partner exposing a secret life and a treasure a half a world away. With his business failing, Connor decides to take his father’s place. A woman he’s seeing senses a connection between him and someone no longer living. No one wants him to go, the operation screams of disaster. Why then is he drawn to it? Above all reason; beyond any sanity. He doesn’t know and it doesn’t matter — for him the adventure is about to begin.
Sometimes it’s nice to read for entertainment purposes. That’s sometimes hard for me, becasue I read nearly 15 hours a week anyway for work, including emails, newsletters, articles and website text. do yourself a favor, and relax and read the first chapter of the Tunnel Hoard at Paul Rutherford’s website.
