As an impending natural disaster threatens the Sonoran landscape, Lincoln Monk and Mich Lee search for a lost goldmine in Desert Gold the second Monk and Lee Adventure by Tony Reed, bestselling author of Neptune Island.
Ex-cops Lincoln Monk and Mich Lee left the rat race with a simple plan: travel the world, work along the way, and live the dream. But life seldom goes according to plan.
When a run-in with ruthless land baron Desmond MacLean ends in an uneasy truce, Lincoln and Mich have no desire to face the MacLean family of cutthroats ever again. However, as they leave MacLean's county, a corrupt local sheriff arrests them, takes them to a remote location in the Sonoran desert, and hands them over to a rival family-a family hell-bent on vengeance and confronting a dark secret from the past.
Caught in the crossfire between two feuding dynasties while the forces of nature threaten to devastate the land, Lincoln and Mich use the only bargaining chip they have: a cryptic map to a lost goldmine that could lead to wealth beyond everyone's wildest dreams, or to their violent death beneath the sands of MacLean's kingdom.
With family rivalries reaching a breaking point and the land tearing itself apart, can Lincoln and Mich survive long enough to decipher the map and lead them all to Desert Gold?
With a good dose of humor, Desert Gold will not only keep fans of gunfights, helicopter battles, natural disasters, and nonstop action turning the pages, but it will leave them wanting more.
