Award winner author in both fiction and non-fiction, Virgil Alexander writes about the people and places of his beloved Southwest with realism and enjoyment of the eccentricities and oddities that are part of the landscape and culture. In this 6th book of the Deputy Allred & Apache Officer Victor series, a terrifying and deadly home invasion sets a financial fraud investigator on a quest of vengeance, and Bren into a cat and mouse game to figure out what is going on. Al Victor is frustrated in his efforts to find the missing daughter of a close friend, and his investigation points at a secretive criminal family at San Carlos. Organized crime takes a new twist on old west cattle rustling in Arizona and New Mexico, and Graham County sheriff and San Carlos police join in an interstate joint task force. A new mine opens in Manny Sanchez' territory and brings a shooting, violent protest, and new opportunities for Manny. A long suspected artifact thief finds a legitimate treasure, and puts Graham County deputies into an armed confrontation with federal officers. Fast paced and surprising turns keep the tension high.
