Short description
Far beneath the waters off Ocracoke Island, North Carolina, an ancient evil is awakened, and an archeologist‘s dream suddenly becomes the world‘s night-mare. Edward Teach might not be as dead as history books claim, and he wants what's his.
Far beneath the waters off Ocracoke Island, North Carolina, an ancient evil is awakened, and an archeologist‘s dream suddenly becomes the world‘s night-mare.
Hunter Singleton, a reporter for a small-town newspaper, and his estranged wife, park ranger Lisa Singleton, must join forces and battle a presence older than mankind. A being known as Diablero has miraculously reanimated the bones of Edward Teach and is moving relentlessly, day and night, through the dark forests and waterways of north-eastern North Carolina. The demon leaves a trail of head-less corpses as it slowly makes its way through the swamp to a relic dealer in Williamsburg, Virginia, where it can reacquire what was lost so long ago—the skull that will make it human once again.

Far beneath the waters off Ocracoke Island, North Carolina, an ancient evil is awakened, and an archeologist‘s dream suddenly becomes the world‘s night-mare.
Hunter Singleton, a reporter for a small-town newspaper, and his estranged wife, park ranger Lisa Singleton, must join forces and battle a presence older than mankind. A being known as Diablero has miraculously reanimated the bones of Edward Teach and is moving relentlessly, day and night, through the dark forests and waterways of north-eastern North Carolina. The demon leaves a trail of head-less corpses as it slowly makes its way through the swamp to a relic dealer in Williamsburg, Virginia, where it can reacquire what was lost so long ago—the skull that will make it human once again.
But it doesn't stop there. Underneath an ancient church on an island in the Bahamas lies a cave with a secret as fasci-nating as it is terrifying, and it's Blackbeard's ultimate dest-ination. Hunter and Lisa are joined in their fight by others who say they also seek to destroy the demon. But their true intentions may be less than honorable, and Teach is about to open the gates of Hell on an unsuspecting world.
Then, there are the dreams, strange visions of things that have yet to come to pass, and other visions of unspeakable horror. Teach has to be destroyed at all costs, but how can mere humans stop the unstoppable?
One man knows the answer, a shaman who has plenty of secrets of his own. And he must be found before it's too late. Not only for Hunter and Lisa, but for the entire human race.
