The second part of Treasure Hunting from the Sunshine Super Sleuth Series

Recap: In the first episode of part three, Tony was employed by Jimmy Dunstain to suss out the loot he had absconded with from Las Vegas some twenty years previously and then planted on the island of Antigua, also he reckoned he had dumped some of it on the way into the island harbours, at the moment in question he was still suffering the effects of an exhausting week in Vegas where he had managed to get roofied. Jimmy Dunstain is one of the central characters in the Cruise Control Over series.

Prior to the Sunshine Super Sleuth Series Tony was involved in espionage and on his last job two eighteen year old girls were assigned to him by the agency he worked for to provide cover; Miriam and Stacey. There are two series covering Tony's exploits on his last job; Clubs and Golden Girls set in Europe, the second one, the Tough and the Toughies set in Uruguay, Argentina and the Falkland Islands. In his retirement from espionage the two girls stuck with him and as he had taken a liking to South America he set up shop in Columbia moored off the coast in a boat.

Chapter One

Stacey is debating with Tony on deck.

The topic is about who the villains really are before she departs with Miriam in their mini subs to check out the seabed just south of the English and Falmouth's Harbours in Antigua, Caribbean, for knocked off jewels and precious metals.

'So what goes, Tony?'

'Most things as it appears to be an open book, let everybody lead each other to each other, arrests are inconsequential to the end game as it will carry on regardless for the illicit gains make it more than worthwhile.'

'Too much tax.'

'Obviously, one feeds each other, either party wants a free economy so something of a stale mate.'

'So who are the villains?'

'That's for your own interpretation, some villains become heroes.'

'As in Marvel comics?'

'As In Robin Hood before such guys took up the mantle to sensationalise it all.'

'I suppose so, where do we fit in?'

'You're real life as opposed to fantasy.'

'That counts.'

'It seems that way for most folk.'

'So our tough girl image has created an enigma.'

'Totally.'

  I'm not sure of creating such an image to influence others.'

'Some trauma for you, we all have some of that.'

'It was not intended.'

'Consequences.'

'Maybe, they happen in most forms of our existences, life is not plan, it is a series of events that formulate one's destiny.'

'It's more or less as accidental as the planet we're on is.'

'Goes hand in hand, there's no rhyme or reason for our existences.'

'So what's it all about?'

'Our purpose in existing at all, Stacey, that's as bigger mystery as this planet is?'

'Here's Miriam, so now for our submarines, we can motor out for ten miles before diving.'

'Saves on your batteries, have you ever been down to four hundred metres before.'

'No, they're supposedly good for a thousand metres plus but de-compression takes forever.'

'I wonder how the nuclear submarines crews manage that predicament, it must be different on those enormous vessels, so I'll expect you back tomorrow, leave me to your boat guests.'

'They're good to look at.'

'Oh yes, tantalising terrific, certainly no tan lines amongst them. I'll go to the bar and join
