Set in the Arizona Territory in 1931 Holladay must outwit an outlaw and reach his assignment before it falls into the hands of his nemesis. The book has characters of adventure villainy and a treasure map leading to a magical painting containing "unlimited wealth". Book review by Joanne Collicott McGuigan "I found this book a good read. The author has a good command of the English language and I found his descriptions delightful. This book has all the ingredients of a good adventure book with the small town setting, the passive aggressive father, cowboys, Indians and the mystical master." (Bookcover by Tami Gramont)
