Luke just wanted to keep his freedom as a nomadic journalist. His searching for stories brought him dangerous exciting adventures and discovering ancient treasures! But then his grandparents died. Luke was left with an immense fortune and heavy responsibility. Managing and protecting the inheritance from unscrupulous lawyers and crooks will take a lot of talented and unusual friends- There is Wally, the hairy motorcycle giant who is a computer genius, Brookstone-the one-eyed leader of the Hearst Castle security guards and his twin sisters Amber and Crystal, gem and martial art experts -whose charms prove irresistible to Luke, along with his best friend Theo, Luke's surfing buddy from college years. And there is a supporting cast of stowaway kids and a monkey, a dream-interpreting cook for The Inheritance ship, cowboys on the ranch in Canada, and more! But even as they are off in The Inheritance ship to support a medical mission, they become involved in ancient Peruvian treasure. And a pair of "old friends" who had been rescued on Palmyra Island keep showing up to claim ill-begotten share of the gold.
