Synopsis Discovered posthumously (or at least that's how it's being spun), PIRATE LATITUDES was completed shortly before best-selling super-star Michael Crichton died in 2009. Crichton's first foray into pirate adventures, this is a classic adventure tale: a pirate and a politician from Jamaica seek their fortunes with a plan to steal a Spanish treasure. Crichton's research and imagination are evident, and he was clearing enjoying himself while working on this final project.
