They find it; now the challenge is keeping the legendary outlaw treasure hidden in the dark recesses of a mysterious Arizona desert cave. In 1934, two young men are desperate to find relief for their families during the Depression. They leave home to work in a government program to develop the vast Colossal Cave near Tucson, Arizona. The accidental discovery of a long-hidden stash from two train robberies in 1887 suddenly presents the men with a dilemma: Their find can solve their families’ problems, but they may break the law to do it. Would they be heroes or criminals?

​

They become partners to overcome constant obstacles in their struggle against relentless dangers and treachery. Everyone wants a piece of the treasure: co-workers, thieves, kidnappers, and even the US Government. Their lives change forever as their many adventures lead them in unexpected directions across southern Arizona, into Mexico, and a future neither could imagine.
