Crossed Keys

By: Yochum, Rick

A missing passenger on a train arriving in New York City on the surface appears to be uneventful. But for Detective Wil Bartrum, one person failing to arrive on her scheduled train places him in the middle of 1940s New Orleans, a Roman Catholic Church female abduction ring, and a plot to receive stolen priceless European artwork from pillaging Nazis. When the daughter of Detective Sam Johnson, Detective Wil Bartrum's partner, is missing from the train that she is expected to be on, the two detectives find themselves on the next train to New Orleans. After the detectives arrive, they find nothing but obstacles, dead-ends, and the uncooperative attitude of the local police. As the detectives dig deeper, they uncover a network of abducted women, sanctioned by the Roman Catholic Church. Plunged into a race with time, each step reveals the ugly truth about Detective Johnson's missing daughter. Now thrown into a Nazi pillaging campaign of priceless European artwork, the detectives wonder if they are capable of completing this case. As clue after clue dissolves before their eyes, finding Johnson's daughter depends on solving this case. Could Bartrum's trials impede him in concluding this case and bringing those involved to justice?
