Bill and Gus Hastings had hoped for a big catch on this fishing trip. A big enough catch, and they would be set for the season. They never imagined it would be their last fishing trip, that the storm would take their boat and leave them in a lifeboat, headed for a remote island off the coast of Maine. They never imagined the buried treasure they would discover, and how their lives would instantly change. Out of fear of being found by those who buried it, the brothers secretly move their families to the unsettled woods of northern Maine. They hide the treasure, never telling their families, for fear they might expose the secret. Duty calls, and the brothers go off to war...the war of 1812...and the secret of the treasure goes with them.Game Warden Ian Randall loves his job and he takes it very seriously. He'll go to great lengths to catch a night hunter, someone illegally trapping, or help rescue a lost hiker. It's all part of the job that can be so rewarding, but it has also cost him a lot. He is torn with the thought of retiring, giving up the excitement of 'the game' for a more stable life. While deciding, he looks after his territory with great pride...a territory that includes a long-deserted settlement at Hastings Brook.

Randall Probert lived and was raised in Strong, Maine; a small town in the western mountains of Maine. Six months after graduating from high school, he left the small town behind for Baltimore, Maryland and a Marine Engineering School, situated downtown near what was then called "The Block". Because of bad weather, the flight from Portland to New York was canceled and this made him late for the connecting flight to Baltimore. A young kid and alone from the backwoods of Maine finally found his way to Washington DC and boarded a bus from there to Baltimore. After leaving the Merchant Marines, he went to an aviation school in Lexington, Massachusetts. During his interview for Maine Game Warden he was asked, "You have gone from the high seas to the air...are you sure you want to be a Game Warden?" Mr. Probert retired from Warden Service in 1997 and started writing historical novels about the history in the areas where he patrolled as a game warden, with his own experiences as a game warden as those of the wardens in his books. Mr. Probert has since expanded his purview and has written 2 science fiction books, PARADIGM and PARADIGM II, and has written a mystical adventure, AN ESOTERIC JOURNEY. Mr. Probert is also currently working on another historical novel, which should be available in the spring, 2015.
