Linda Burke has lost everything. Linda’s mother is dead, and she never knew her father. Her half brother stole her share of the family inheritance, and her good name is gone. Now, she’s lost her freedom. Soon she’ll lose her life when she is executed for the murder of a man she didn’t kill. Deputy Kurt Michaels is flummoxed. He knows his duty under the law, and all evidence points at Linda. But something about her situation doesn’t ring true. The more he learns about Linda’s story, the greater his conviction that she is being framed. When unknown assailants make attempts on Linda’s life, Kurt is convinced a greater mystery lies behind the crime for which Linda is charged. Will his efforts to save Linda be in vain, or will they both discover the joy of a treasure regained?

Can love put out the bitterness that burns inside Clay? Clay Burke burns with bitterness toward his older brother, Derek, who deserted him and their ma when they needed him most—just like Pa did. Derek even tried to steal the silver mine Pa had bequeathed to his children. Then Meagan crosses Clay’s path, stirring feelings of compassion and concern he hasn’t felt since his mother died. Meagan Foster barely remembers her own name. She certainly doesn’t know what happened to her family or why she was found wandering across the Nevada wilderness with severe injuries. Nor is she convinced she wants to remember. Something tells her that knowledge will bring shame and earn the rejection of the kind people who have taken her in. Will turmoil from the past keep Meagan and Clay apart, or will the true treasure God has prepared for them be revealed? “Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water: but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place." Psalm 66:12
