Press Release Body: Houston, TX, October 13, 2008 - Hurricane Ike recently finished
an archeological dig that was started by Hurricane Camille in 1969. After the waves
of Ike receded, tourists were amazed to find the skeletal remains of a long lost
sailing vessel exposed on a beach in Fort Morgan, Alabama. Archeologists say the
wreck could be that of the Monticello, a two-masted Civil War schooner that ran
aground in 1862. Waiting for a hurricane to excavate tons of sand might not be the
best way to find an ancient ship or a long lost treasure. In Tom Williams' novel
Lost and Found, an exhilarating, modern day treasure hunt begins when an orbiting
satellite is reprogrammed to search for deposits of a rare super-conducting metal.
The metal is gold, and after a worldwide satellite search, finding the locations of
all lost treasure ships around the globe become as simple as following the
directions on a hand held GPS.

Lost and Found is an exotic escape from reality that tracks the adventures of two
English expatriates who are hired by an oil-consulting firm to track oil reserves
around the globe using a geological survey satellite. Realizing the spacecraft will
not find oil, and reconfiguring it to find gold, results in accusations of sabotage
and the English engineers' termination from the company. Their corrupt boss has
given them only thirty days to find gold, or be arrested, when a co-worker who had
the only means of proving their innocence turns up dead. After the two Englishmen
team up with a beautiful salvage captain in Florida, the three travel to Turkey and
a quest begins for unparalleled riches that is filled with unpredictable twists and
turns and non-stop action. In the exciting race for an ancient treasure, the cast
of characters battle a treacherous storm, an earthquake, a tsunami, and each other.


Tom Williams resides in Florida, and is a master merchant marine officer licensed by
the U.S. Coast Guard for twenty-three years, specializing in shipwrecks and salvage
diving. Tom's vast background enriches Lost and Found with true-life experiences to
make it a plausible maritime treasure hunt, and lends credibility to an imaginative
plot. Read the rave reviews he has received - indicating that this is one author to
