The map points the way to an underground river of gold . . . or does it? To find out, Callaghen will have to fight the toughest war of his life- against a fierce Indian warrior, a vindictive commanding officer, and a ruthless gang of outlaws who'll turn what may be a river of gold into a river of blood.
