When ancient secrets meet modern greed, only the truth can preserve what matters most.
A midnight break-in at an archaeological dig site near Morgantown, West Virginia, sets former Army Special Operations officer Jamie Blackwood and State Police Detective Sandra Elkfoot on the trail of a conspiracy that threatens to destroy a thousand years of Native American history.
Dr. Sarah Brennan's groundbreaking discovery of a pre-Columbian copper trade network-evidence of sophisticated commerce stretching from the Great Lakes to the Gulf Coast-has attracted the wrong kind of attention. When her research and priceless artifacts are stolen, it's clear someone wants this site to disappear forever.
As Jamie and Sandra dig deeper, they uncover a web of corporate corruption, artifact smuggling, and cultural destruction that reaches far beyond one rural dig site. Pinnacle Development Corporation will stop at nothing to acquire the land, even if it means erasing irreplaceable evidence of America's indigenous past.
With farmer Harold Wessels caught between financial pressure and historical preservation, and tribal elders fighting to protect sacred ground, Jamie must use every skill from his military training and archaeological expertise to expose the truth. But the conspiracy runs deeper than anyone imagined, and the stakes are higher than a simple theft.
Some treasures are worth more than money. Some ground is too sacred to sell. And some fights are worth risking everything to win.
