Texas Constable E.E. Rhett Richtor and his partner, forensic engineer Janett Kiestler, make a formidable pair. While in the middle of one of their lovingly scathing, playful battles of wits, they are presented with a mystery both profound and personal.
At first the uncovered bones of two men and a horse seem little more than an archaeological find-a find that piques Rhett's interest when items found with the bones link them to his great-grandfather Chance W. No Chance Richtor, a famous Texas lawman of the 1880s.
The tracing of his ancestor's 120-year-old investigation that could be worth billions today, brings Rhett close to his great-grandfather and takes him back to a time when Texas demanded a certain kind of man and woman.
In the present, murder, mayhem, and manipulation abound, involving a reclusive, prestigious, and most mysterious girls' school, a chip of precious metal, and the conclusion of No Chance Richtor's case. Before it's over, Rhett and Janett will find that while greed and violence transcend the ages, so does honor-and that justice can reach from the grave.
