The trail takes Cassie to Anaconda, Montana, a quirky former copper mining town that’s the perfect place to reinvent yourself. As the case develops, Cassie begins to wonder if her client is telling her everything.On top of that, Cassie is also working what's easily one of her strangest assignments ever. A poem that promises buried treasure to one lucky adventurer has led to a cutthroat competition and five deaths among treasure-hunters. But Cassie’s client doesn’t want the treasure. Instead, he claims to be the one who hid the gold and wrote the poem. And he’s hired Cassie to try to find him. Between the two cases, Cassie has her hands full.In Montana, a killer view can mean more than just the scenery, and Cassie knows much darker things hide behind the picturesque landscape of Big Sky Country.

The other is red hot: State archaeologist Gilda Humphreys, who has left behind a string of bitter lovers, disgruntled employees, and the kind of rotten reputation that could get a woman killed. But it’s a curious pastime of Gilda’s that has piqued the interest of Jemimah and Rick. Gilda was engaged in a high-profile treasure hunt, complete with puzzling clues and tricky twists. The wild stunt has been orchestrated by Tim McCabe, a landowner wealthy enough to play such games with the public. Now it’s time for Jemimah and Rick to follow the trail.

Treasure for Treasure
by Justin ScottA partly-constructed tunnel under the East River is not the place one would expect to be the scene of world-shattering events, fame, fortune, lights, camera ... ACTION. Dick Creegan, sandhog, didn't expect to find it there either. Until he took a look at some funny looking rocks. He should have looked the other way because those "rocks" were the beginning of: --a conspiracy of sandhogs against the combined forces of the government of the City of New York --a dazzling debut of amateur crooks and unexpected new careers --a race between a tugboat and a Volkswagen --the heisting of a smuggled treasure which is in turn moved away by ship, covered by blacktop, uncovered, re-heisted and ... invested. In Treasure for Treasure, Justin Scott has given us another wildly funny story of what happens when the Devil whispers into the ears of good, ordinary New York citizens-- in this case Dick Creegan and bulky friends, his girl Jeannie with her acting career and her incredibly large animal companion, Howard, and some of the many and fatal friends pursuing them after they strike their own waterlogged Treasure of the Sierra Madre. This is a story of love, courage, true grit and incredible bumbling. Once again, readers across the country will find confirmation of what they so ardently believe -- that in New York the Devil is only as far away as the nearest subway.
