For the treasure lies in Haiti, the island that was once France's most profitable colony - until the blood-chilling repression practiced there by the whites upon their slaves triggered a savage rebellion. The world's only Black Republic still looks with murderous mistrust upon any strangers who might set foot there, and January is in no hurry to go.But when Vitrack is murdered, and attempts are made on January's wife and himself, he understands that he has no choice. He must seek the treasure himself, to draw the unknown killers into the open, a bloody trail that leads first to Cuba, then to Haiti, and finally to the secret that lies buried with the accursed gold. 650 0 $a January, Benjamin (Fictitious character) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Free African Americans $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Private investigators $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Treasure troves $z Haiti $v Fiction. 651 0 $a New Orleans (La.) $x Social conditions $y 19th century $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Haiti $x Social conditions $y 19th century $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Mystery fiction. $2 gsafd 655 0 $a Detective and mystery stories. 800 1 $a Hambly, Barbara. $t Benjamin January series. 941 $a 10 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220520010142.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20210713012704.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20210202014624.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20200204075211.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110061130.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006082324.0 952 $l NDPD953 $d 20180713051118.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20170418103712.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20160202083738.0 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20150911040523.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6843548649F911E48ACD98BDDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IW9Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
