EBOOK
About
A small-town robbery, a desperate swim across the Rio Grande, and a fugitive vanishes into Mexico with stolen bills drying in his shoes. With an uncanny gift for slipping beneath water like a grebe, the thief has shaken every posse-and now rumor of a forgotten treasure pulls him deeper south.
In the Tarasco highlands lie sapphire lakes the local people guard from outsiders, untouched since the conquistadors. One holds a sunken cache of Spanish gold. A drifter with a stolen identity, a weary partner with a map, and a sullen Indian guide who remembers four centuries of cruelty climb together toward that blue water-each man watching the others.
Bullets, betrayal, and the silent depths await the swimmer who thinks no grave can hold him. In the cold dark beneath that placid surface, even the swiftest stroke discovers dives from which no man returns.
