In a Cloud of Dust: Discovered Treasure and the Masterminds Crawling Out from Behind the Woodwork (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798995210016)

An action adventure about a young man who finds a rare treasure and everlasting love, while fending off villains in his mission to sell the coins

Follow Jack Andrews' journey in this thriller as he attempts to sell the coins at the highest possible prices and use the funds for good intentions, though greed emerges. This leads to devious masterminds willing to do anything to seize the coins.

Selling the coins proves difficult due to several obstacles. For one, there aren't any records that the gold coins were ever produced. Jack fabricates a mysterious friend and a story, or myth, in hopes that everyone believes the coins are authentic and legally his.

Along the way, Jack befriends Old Pete, an eccentric storyteller of Virginia City and the Comstock Lode folklore. Pete is convinced the gold coins are real.

Intertwined with Jack's search for information is a passionate romance with a beautiful girl, his first true love. Callie, the daughter of a coin dealer, tries to convince Jack that the coins are part of a botched robbery.

Perhaps his greatest nemesis is the deadly secrets and a curse exposed for the first time since the coins were buried in 1880.
