Summary:
"A prequel to his CJ Floyd mystery series - takes readers back in time to a very young CJ Floyd. It's 1972, and the 22-year-old decorated war vet has recently returned to Denver from Vietnam with post-traumatic stress disorder. Navigating depression, he finds a friend in World War II vet and amputee Wiley Ames, who shares his passion for rare and valuable western memorabilia. When Ames and a mysterious Chinese man are found murdered, CJ's already fragile world threatens to collapse. His attempts to find his friend's killer are thwarted at every turn, and finally he joins his Uncle Ike's business as a bail bondsman and bounty hunter. Five years later one of Ames's treasured antique license plates turns up at a Denver flea market, and CJ is once again off and running. The trail to Ames's murderer leads CJ down a path strewn with backstabbing antique dealers, conniving friends of Ames, and corrupt international bankers. Both a white-knuckle-ride murder mystery and a tale of a traumatized young man coming to terms with his past,
