Suspense, extortion, modern piracy, kidnapping and spectacular chases make this story a real page-turner. This book reads like the storyboard of an action movie and will draw in both avid and reluctant readers aged 10-15. It is like a boy's dream when the famous Dutch professor -- Willem de Wolff -- and his wife and three teenagers get the opportunity to go on a secret ocean expedition to salvage the vaults of the Titanic. But when top criminal Mortimer learns about this expedition, they are plunged into a heart-stopping adventure. Plot twists, wildly entertaining chases, lack of vulgarity, well rounded role model characters make Bert E. Wiseman's books popular among young people and parents, Christian and secular audiences alike. The sequel to 'The Vaults of the Titanic' is available now on Amazon: 'Chess in the Wilderness - de Wolff Adventure Series part 2'. About the series: The de Wolff Adventure Series portrays an apparently ordinary family who could easily be your next door neighbours. Professor Willem de Wolff is a world renowned Dutch historian and academic often sought out for his expertise. He is married to Elise, and they have three teenage children -- Bob, Eric, and Jessica. Together they travel the world as the professor gets invited to take part in expeditions, sometimes to retrieve artefacts of great value. These trips are not without danger as the valuables the professor is entrusted with tend to catch the attention of criminal networks. More often than not, what starts off as a working expedition for de Wolff and a holiday for the rest of the family, turns into a gripping and fast-paced adventure as they become embroiled in the schemes of unscrupulous people and must fight for survival. Although occasionally the reading experience may be enhanced by reading previous installments, all of the books in the series make great standalone reads. Bert's fans are typically in the range of 10-16 years of age, and often parents get hooked on the series themselves.
