About this ebook
The unlikely writing alliance between Lilith Eden and Craig Suits came about through a mutual membership in a highly prestigious blog site called Hubpages.com.
Mr. Suits explains that while reviewing new bloggers, he was attracted by Liliths pretty face and went on to read a few of her submissions.
Captivated by her college-trained literary style, he commented on each of her blogs and she quickly responded.
They discovered and eerie similarity between two separate blogs each had written that caused conversation to bloom on one of the internets video communication programs and the coalition was born.
One thousand miles and 46 years apart, Craigs field experience and Liliths literary knowledge led to their first book as co-authors: Treasure In Your Backyard.
They are currently working on a science fiction thriller, which they hope will make it to the big screen.
Craig Suits
Two heads are better than one they say and that certainly holds true here with Lilith Eden, holder of bachelors degrees in anthropology and history, does the editing while Craig Suits, Author of "Up One Level," an Authorhouse book, supplies 45 years of field experience and technical know-how in the field of treasure hunting with a metal detector.

My little seven-year-old friend from Florida;
When we weren’t climbing trees, swimming, playing tag, riding wheel barrels, or just walking the beach by the bay, we dug hundreds of holes and found lots of coins and other neat treasures.
Watching your eyes light up when you pulled up a shiny quarter or a cool ring was the best of times for me. I have a feeling a Golden Doubloon is in our future.

Chapter 1
The Preface
Many years ago I purchased a metal detector kit, which, two nights later, lay assembled in my basement workshop and ready for testing. Although it was nearing midnight, I gathered up a flashlight and a screwdriver for digging and made my way to the front yard, trailed all the while by my wife, Rita, who had not stopped scoffing at my ridiculous
