Dan Mora is a prospector in the desolate region of the Southwestern desert. After being nursed back to health from a rattlesnake bite by a friendly Tarahumara Indian named Quanto, he receives a warning from him. In the direction Mora is heading, Quanto exclaims, "Apache!" Then, sweeping his arms in an all-encompassing circle, he uttered the second word: !Bandidos! On the trail, Mora passes the invisible Sonoran border and comes upon the ruins of an abandoned mission and graveyard. As dusk settles, he makes the unpleasant discovery that he is being stalked by two Apaches. He has no idea yet about the secret gold deposit and the two murdered bodies. Quanto, who has trailed Mora, will help him again; and hopefully before it's too late . . . Tim Champlin, born John Michael Champlin in Fargo, North Dakota, with his customary panache for telling a vivid story with characters thrust into exciting historical events, provides a narrative rich, original, and always surprising.
