Publisher's Synopsis
A knock on the door in the middle of the night sets off a dangerous and deadly pursuit in this riveting stand-alone entry in the Cain City series.
Ephraim Rivers, a struggling single father on the brink of losing his factory job, is working the graveyard shift when a man with a bullet in his gut stumbles in, whispering of stolen money. Ephraim sees an opportunity to alter the course of his family's fortunes, and becomes obsessed with finding the loot.
But there are bad men pursuing the treasure - and for them, the opportunity is to seize power and to settle scores. Killing means nothing to them, whether it's each other - or anyone who gets in their way.
Ephraim just wants to do right - by his son, whose medical bills are piling up; by his father, whose time on this Earth may not be long. But it's a fine line between desire and greed - and crossing that line could be Ephraim's final act.
