When Coronado marched through the Verde Valley in 1542, looking for the Seven Cities of Gold, Yavapai scouts took him to a mine near present-day Jerome. Coronado didn't find what he was looking for, but a persistent legend says he left behind a bag of gold doubloons. Now, almost five hundred years later, Reed Harper, Paul and Marty Russell's foster son, needs those precious coins to finance the future he dreams of.
But Reed isn't the only one determined to find the gold doubloons. As the search intensifies in the caves around Jerome and extends to the ancient cliff dwelling called Montezuma Castle, someone dies. Was the fall from a cliff that borders Montezuma Well an accident-or was it murder?
When a fall from the same cliff puts Reed in a coma, the sheriff arrests him for murder. But Scott Russell knows his foster brother is innocent. Convinced a ruthless killer is after Reed, Scott rushes to protect him. Will Paul and Marty find the teens in time to rescue them, or will the murderer claim another victim?
