About this series
For 200 years, Oak Island in Mahone Bay kept its secrets. Treasure hunters came and left, spirits broken and bank accounts drained.
A British admiral's wartime journal brings new hope – and new dangers – to museum curator Carlos Sheldon and his student assistant, Lauren Gates, as they join the hunt for the elusive Money Pit treasure. When they respond to lighthouse keeper Rudy Maddock's invitation to translate the admiral's journal, they're met with suspicion and careful cordiality. With mounting tensions between the two rival treasure hunting companies working Oak Island, another interested party isn't welcome.
Desperation runs high as the Money Pit's 200th anniversary shines the spotlight on the treasure hunting operations' failures. With escalating debts and losses, one hunter takes a wrong turn, as another discovers the island's secret riches or cruel hoax.
For Dr. Sheldon and Lauren, timing is everything.

Swallowed in time and believed to be burned by Nazis, the Amber Chamber is a treasure lost in war and chaos. A chance purchase in France leads museum curator Carlos Sheldon and his assistant Lauren on a broken chase through Europe for the lost Amber Room. Pursued by deadly Russian and Polish mercenaries with their own agendas, staying one step ahead of the hunt ends in a stumble as the lines between sides blur. Reviewed by Kayci Webster for Readers' Favorite: 4 Stars "Room of Fire by Jenn Rekka starts off innocently enough...what the Duke has hidden in the family crypt could blow the art world away...it gets a bit dicey since they are not the only ones looking into the antiques, but probably the only ones doing it legally. Mystery, intrigue, sabotage, and kidnapping, along with out and out theft all come into play and three different parties try to find the same limited pieces for different reasons...a dynamic read...I did not want to put it down." Book 2 in the Rediscovered Series. The first ebook in the series, Last Assault on Oak Island, is released through this and other publishing outlets.

Jenn Rekka
A long-time writer and reader, loves adventure and mystery. Growing up on Ellis Peters/Edith Pargeter, Elizabeth Peters/Barbara Michaels (and Indiana Jones and Walter Farley), action-based history and mystery pursuits have always driven my imagination.Last Assault on Oak Island is one treasure that has always fascinated me. The Rediscovered series is a collection of other lost treasures history has buried. I'm eager to put forth some of the theories and rumors backed by research and a heavy dose of "maybe..." in the next four books planned.Room of Fire follows the first book, and from there, Dr. Sheldon and Lauren cross into the Middle East, Asia, and more.
