About This Neat Tale

Something's happening! Cattle prices are rising. There's been a murder in Tortilla Flat, Arizona and one in Dallas, Texas that are somehow connected.

Kevin Stewart's quest to find out what happened to his uncle takes him deep into an abandoned gold mine in the rugged Superstition Mountains of Arizona and then to a remote area of Idaho.

Sure, as a member of the U. S. Special Forces, he's well trained. And his girl friend, Laurie Beth McCarthy, is more than a match for him. But what they face is overpowering. No mere mortal can withstand what's coming at them. As they come to see more clearly just what they're up against, they realize they are fighting for their very lives. Not long after, they begin wondering if they even have a chance.

This award-winning novel will keep you on the edge of your chair from beginning to end. Don't miss it!

From A Review

This author, Tom Geldermann, juggles the three components of his story with finesse. He skillfully weaves the threads of his tale and one follows with much anticipation. He is a master storyteller. I would recommend this book with no hesitation. I was captivated.

Tom piloting ultralight photo
