Echoes of Fortune

De: David R. Leng

Narrado por: Ben Hauck

What would you risk to uncover a secret buried for over 150 years?

From bestselling and multi–award-winning author David R. Leng comes the next pulse-pounding installment in the Echoes of Fortune series.

His debut, Echoes of Fortune: The Search for Braddock’s Lost Gold, captivated readers and earned a 4.5-star rating on Goodreads. Now the adventure continues with a brand-new novella that plunges deeper into history’s deadliest secrets.

When historian Jack Sullivan, Smithsonian curator Emma Wilson, and fellow former Navy SEAL Steve Johnson set out for a Thanksgiving dive off Cozumel, they expected nothing more than warm waters and forgotten wrecks. Instead, they uncover a Confederate ghost ship that vanished in 1865—along with a secret powerful enough to change history.

But they’re not alone. Shadowy mercenaries and a black-hulled yacht stalk their every move, determined to silence them before the truth surfaces. From dazzling reefs to the back alleys of Veracruz, Jack and his team are forced into a deadly game where history isn’t past—it’s a weapon.

Some secrets don’t want to be found. And some will kill to stay buried.

Perfect for fans of Steve Berry, Clive Cussler, Dan Brown, and James Rollins, Shadows Over Cozumel delivers nonstop action, historical intrigue, and a mystery that spans centuries.

A Cinematic Dive into Mystery and Depth

The pacing of Echoes of Fortune: Shadows Over Cozumel hooked me right away. It never drags—each chapter moves with purpose, balancing mystery, action, and character moments perfectly. The tension builds naturally, like a slow dive that suddenly drops you into deep water when you least expect it.

Ben Hauck’s narration fits that rhythm beautifully. His voice adds weight to the quiet moments and urgency to the action, making every twist hit harder. The combination of strong writing, sharp pacing, and professional narration makes this feel less like an audiobook and more like a cinematic experience.

If you enjoy thrillers that keep you on edge but still care about the people at the heart of the story, this one delivers from the first dive to the final surface.
