Mark Stone left his Washington D. C. home of twenty years, wandering across the country trying to escape the nightmares of his close brush with death. He stops in picturesque Santa Fe, New Mexico to rest up and decide where to go next. On a cool Sunday Morning, while enjoying a cup of coffee in the town plaza, he receives a cell phone call from Peggy Hart, the Mayor of Las Vegas, Nevada. Mayor Hart persuades him to come to Las Vegas on the pretext of helping her obtain a much needed federal grant. Within minutes after leaving Hart's office, he is roughly pinned against the wall by a Metropolitan Police officer who believes Mark has shot and killed the mayor. Mark is drawn into a deadly race to find millions, if not billions of stolen treasures taken from the millions killed in World War II death camps. The trail is linked to Ratline Descendants who have infiltrated the ranks of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department. In the high desert surrounding Hawthorne, Nevada the full extent of the treasure is revealed.
