Book Description

There's hidden treasure buried in the Sweetwater River Valley.

And gold has been discovered in the Rattlesnake Hills.

​​​

Alvah Nye is itching to get back on the trail. The frontier has other plans.

​​

A God-fearing frontier settlement goes mad overnight. hard working pioneers become obsessed with the search for buried riches. The lure of easy money is hard to quash. Every man carries a rifle in one hand and a shovel in the other.

Overnight, swarms of prospectors and a ready-made sin-filled town roll through the valley. They stake their claim at the end of Cutthroat Creek, on the back side of Split Rock Mountain. It's pistols and pans versus pickaxes in a place where whiskey soaked hard cases burn both ends of the day.

​​

Newfound wealth isn't the only trouble on the prairie.

Like a wraith in the nights, somebody has been knocking folks over the head. Those who survive find themselves with empty pockets and splitting headaches.

​

When eleven year old Benji Pinecroft vanishes without a trace, his older sister, Sarah, is desperate to find him. Alvah Nye is determined to bring the boy who idolizes him home safe. Together, Alvah and Sarah face the perils of a hair-raising search that leads them to the devil's doorstep. But there's no trace of Benji anywhere.
