Description

Dak Harper's search for a pair of stolen artifacts lands him in big trouble in a small town. North Carolina, A thief waits for his buyer to arrive near a vacated rock quarry, but he and his partner get more than they bargained for from a sociopath with a financial stranglehold on the region. After the artifacts disappear, and a mysterious murder, Dak Harper arrives on the scene to solve both. His boss, an eccentric young millionaire with a passion for antiquities, has sent him to North Carolina to retrieve the artifacts--a set of Civil War pistols stolen from a museum. The legendary Samuel Colt made the guns for President Abraham Lincoln, but now they've vanished, and Dak only has a short window of time to find them before they're gone forever. As he tracks his quarry, Dak learns a Southern tycoon’s interests stretch much further than stolen weapons. Turns out he’s holding an entire town hostage at the center of a sprawling crime syndicate. And innocent townsfolk are dying.
