Engaging and quirky mystery, history, and adventure!

Underwater, everybody can hear you scream, but they can't tell where you are....

Ketch is at it again in the magical Outer Banks of North Carolina, in this new adventure from the author of Port Starbird and Port of Refuge. It's a picture-perfect summer afternoon on a pristine beach near a ghost seaport on an uninhabited island. What could go wrong? But things do, when two bodies wash ashore and Ketch stumbles upon clues that lead to the sunken treasure of an old-time buccaneer off Portsmouth Island. Ketch isn't the only one who has an interest in the treasure, and it exposes both him and his adversaries to unexpected obligations and consequences. It seems everyone has to pay the port fee....

Good guys and bad guys, boating and diving, a dash of romance, and a mysterious otherworldly presence all come together in The Port Fee, Ketch's most challenging adventure to date.

If you like pirate treasure hunting than this is for you. It was a good story, if sometimes a bit to much detail about the area (I think if you know the area it will mean a lot more to you).

The characters from the previous books also appeared in the story to help storm save the day. He introduced some new team members and I look forward to seeing how all the relationships develop in further books.

The only down side was the narrator, he had only one sounding voice meaning I found it hard to tell which character was speaking adult, child and even man or women.

The Port Fee is an island and ocean adventure with hidden treasure, pirates, a ghost, scuba diving, and more. It’s an entertaining story, although there is a point when the hero’s actions, while justified, cease to be heroic.

I would consider this book suitable for most audiences. Contains violence and mild sexual situations- probably PG-13 if it was a movie.

The narrator of the audiobook does a good job and suits the story.

I received a complimentary copy of this audiobook. This is my honest and voluntary review.

Finding two dead divers at the shore leads to treasure, a brush with death, and a ghost. Researching the cause of the divers demise "Ketch" discovers a Nazi submarine filled with gold bars and a pirate ship filled with gold coins. The ghost of the legendary Sea Hag warns him off, but he doesn't listen. After rogue treasure hunters attempt to kill Ketch and his crew and kidnap his grandson, he seeks revenge. I was gifted this from the author.

I was given this audio in exchange for an honest review.

Although this is not book 1 in the series, you can enjoy this book without listening to those first as I did and still enjoy. However their are a few references to other mysteries and immediate references to characters you will meet or discover more about later that would have been more obvious to someone who had listened to the whole series.

The story starts out pretty quickly with 2 bodies. And then the mystery moves on from their. It is a decently paced story their are lots of fun facts about the islands of NC. Storm is a great character and so are his friends! I loved the ending and the fact the author was not afraid to seek revenge on the bad guys!
