Gus McIntyre is drawn into a thrilling treasure hunt that pits him against ruthless adversaries in the unforgiving Texas wilderness. When a dying stranger presses a cryptic map into Gus's hands, the hero of the Black Hills embarks on a dangerous quest for the fabled gold of Emperor Ferdinand Maximilian.
The stakes couldn't be higher. The Ku Klux Klan seeks the treasure to fund a second Confederate revolt, while U.S. government agents race to keep it out of their hands. Gus, aided by his steadfast ally, Apache Chief Tatonga, must outwit zealots, survive death threats, and decipher the secrets of the map - all while protecting Kate and Lizzy Sanders.
From narrow escapes to life-changing discoveries, Gus's journey is one of selflessness and courage. Rich in history and heartwarming action, Chasing Gold is a new and exciting chapter in the McIntyre series. Fans of classic Western adventure and historical fiction that is written in a Louie L'Amour style of prose will savor this thrilling tale of bravery and friendship. Join McIntyre's quest, where every clue is a risk and every choice a new adventure
