Cactizonians' Treasure

Beschreibung

In 1934, two young men are desperate to find jobs to help their families during the Great Depression. They leave home to find work in a government program to develop a vast cave near Tucson, Arizona. The accidental discovery of a long-hidden stash from two train robberies in 1887 suddenly presents the men with a dilemma: Their find can solve their families' problems, but hey may have to break the law to keep it. Would they be heroes or criminals? They become partners to overcome constant obstacles in their struggle against relentless dangers and treachery. Everyone wants a piece of the treasure: co-workers, thieves, kidnappers, and even the US Government. Their live change forever as their many adventures lead them in unexpected directions across southern Arizona, into Mexico, and a future neither of them could imagine. Cactizonians' Treasure will give you a new perspective on finding lost riches and what it might take to keep them. You'll never dream of finding lost treasure in the same way! Action adventure from beginning to end.
