His latest novella, Echoes of Fortune: Shadows Over Cozumel (White Publishing, ISBN: 9798991093149), releases November 11, 2025, plunging readers into a high-stakes adventure where history’s deadliest secrets refuse to stay buried.
Following the success of Echoes of Fortune: The Search for Braddock’s Lost Gold—which earned a 4.5-star rating on Goodreads and widespread reader acclaim—Leng once again blends historical mystery with breakneck modern suspense.
When historian Jack Sullivan, Smithsonian curator Emma Wilson, and former Navy SEAL Steve Johnson head to Cozumel for a Thanksgiving dive, they expect to explore forgotten wrecks beneath tropical waters. Instead, they discover a Confederate ghost ship that vanished in 1865—and a sealed brass tube containing secrets powerful enough to rewrite history.
But before they can surface, a black-hulled yacht and its team of ruthless mercenaries close in. What begins as an archaeological dive becomes a deadly race across the reefs of Cozumel and the alleys of Veracruz. As the trio fights to survive, they learn that history isn’t past—it’s a weapon.
Some secrets don’t want to be found… and some will kill to stay buried.
Fast-paced, atmospheric, and filled with richly woven historical intrigue, Shadows Over Cozumel is perfect for fans of Steve Berry, Clive Cussler, Dan Brown, and James Rollins.
