Gold in Them Texas Hills

An Al Quinn Novel: Book 10

All that glitters is not good.

Al Quinn’s plans to live a quiet retired life are shattered when trespassers begin encroaching on his lakeside property at night with flashlights and a metal detector.

First, there are two men, then four, then six showing up almost every evening on Al’s land. Some of them are armed and willing to fire their weapons. Al has no idea what’s motivating the unwelcome visitors. But they soon realize their lives are being threatened by some dangerous men.

Sheriff Clayton makes matters worse by asking for Al’s help on a different matter. With an election coming, two women are getting ready to claim that thirty years ago, Clayton went too far with them when they were underage Girl Scouts. Clayton swears he’s innocent, so Al agrees to look into the situation.

With all that’s going on, Al’s life becomes a real Wild West circus, one he can’t begin to enjoy since he and his family could all wind up dead.
