Publisher's Synopsis
Sandeen wasn't looking for a mystery, but fate handed him one. Master Sergeant Alvin Templeton disappeared one find day in 1977, and the Air Force declared him a deserter. Now, thirty-five years later, Robert Templeton--Sergeant Al's son--has talked Sandeen into investigating the disappearance of his father in hopes of clearing his name. Sandeen immerses himself in a Cold War nest of snakes and deception that involves espionage, seduction, and murder. In doing so, he will uncover secrets that some are desperate to keep. Staying focused on Templeton's disappearance becomes challenging. Thugs from a previous case are harboring a grudge and looking for revenge. An inconvenient romance with a lady cop from Wyoming complicates matters as he tries to solve the mystery and at the same time, stay alive.
