Dive into Sam White's adventures today! -- Review From Literary Titan In the annals of maritime history, Captain Frances Drake stands as a towering figure famed for his seizure of the Cacafuego in 1579. His knack for plundering treasures from rival vessels sets the tone for a narrative woven centuries later in modern-day California in Timothy A. Brown's Baja Silver. Enter Dani, a tenacious sex worker navigating a world fraught with challenges. Facing constant threats from her overbearing pimp, she discovers an ally in TommyLynn, an androgynous colleague with a deeply scarred past, marred by abuse and prejudice. In a parallel narrative, the author introduces us to Sam White, the altruistic director of St. Frances Village, a beacon of hope for the downtrodden. As TommyLynn champions the cause of the LGBTQ community, especially those ostracized by their families, their paths inevitably cross with Sam's. However, danger lurks in the shadows. Trixie's relentless pursuit of control over Dani takes a dark turn, ensnaring them in a sinister world of human trafficking and crime syndicates. As fate would have it, Sam and TommyLynn find themselves embroiled in a quest, not only to rescue victims but also to unearth a buried treasure and dismantle the trafficking network. What sets this novel apart is its character development. Sam emerges as the embodiment of selflessness, a pillar of strength for the vulnerable, balanced beautifully by his unwavering commitment as a husband. Dani, characterized by her indomitable spirit, is accentuated by TommyLynn's loyalty and camaraderie. The narrative delves into the grim realities of prostitution and trafficking, painting a vivid picture of a world where the vulnerable are often exploited by the remorseless. The narrative occasionally veers into profanity I feel is rather excessive, and I think some emotional depictions come across as somewhat overwrought. However, the essence of Timothy A. Brown's Baja Silver retains its magnetic pull. It is a recommended read for readers of contemporary fiction that delves into the intricate layers of human sexuality and resilience. Rating: 4 Stars
