Publisher's summary

Joe Harbin hadn't killed a man for a fortune in gold just to sit in prison and let Rodelo collect it.

But when he and his men break out and head for the stash, they end up with a pair of unwelcome partners: Rodelo and a beautiful woman with a hidden past.

To get fifty thousand dollars in gold across fifty miles of desert, the desperate band quickly learns how much they need each other - and how deep their greed and suspicion can run. At the end of the journey lie the waters of Baja and a new life in Mexico, but first they have to survive the savage heat, bounty-hunting Yaqui Indians, and the shifting, treacherous nature of both the desert sands and their own conflicting loyalties.

Great listen

This is one of the best orators that I’ve listened too. Great classic western with some twists.

Grueling and Picturesque

Could almost feel the experience and always appreciate the study of geography the author gives. Didn't expect to hear the main character send the horse back to their original helper, Sam. That's friendship in far begotten places where one would think there are no friends.

should have stayed missing

Eduardo Ballerini reading was the highlight of the book. If we're going to dig up an unpublished L'Amour book let's do a good one. this wasn't published for a reason.

Lots of desert

It was a pretty good book, the orator was real good. Biggest problem was the ongoing description of things time and time again. Sometimes I would skip ahead just to get on with the story.
