    About this audiobook

    Jim Gore prospects the barren hills of the southwest, dreaming of striking it rich. He is a man as lonely and forgotten as the nearby ghost town itself, San Filipo. That is, until an earthquake uncovers the abandoned town's long-guarded secret - a treasure in silver! How much more is still hidden beneath the ruins?

    Jim meets the mysterious Chris Estaban, a man with secrets of his own, who tells Jim that he is also known as "The Doctor" and "Colonel Dice." Jim knows his only chance to get the silver is to team up with this mysterious gunman and gambler. But what he doesn't know is that his easy-going life will end forever when greed, violence, and betrayal take over.
