With two boys and a mother to support, the pressure is on her to increase profitability of the tree farm. Who is trying to ruin her? Can she put a stop to the generational feud?

Book Excerpt
Sam’s throat was so dry that he could barely swallow. He wiped sweat from his eyes. He moved ahead, searching for clues. Pine trees were becoming more prevalent, and he smelled sage, clean and sharp.
A thousand yards ahead, the mountain slope would increase. He had veered off the trail, but now another trail came into view. It might cross one of the main roads.
“Come on, Wesley,” he yelled. “I have an idea.”
Wesley looked up, surprised. He nodded eagerly and headed to the SUV, where Sam met him.
“Head northwest. Go slow.”
Fifteen minutes later, Sam pointed to a distinct trail to the left. “Turn there. It heads to the old Maxwell Cabin. The Forest Service abandoned it years ago.”
Wesley nodded and turned onto the trail.
When the wooden structure came into view, Sam motioned to Wesley to stop the ATV. They both exited and Wesley started to move forward.
“Hold on,” Sam instructed. “You’re carrying a gun for a reason.”
“But the suspect emptied his pistol.”
“Take my advice. Change to your lightweight gloves.”
Wesley begrudgingly changed his gloves and pulled his pistol. He took two quick steps forward.
“Freeze!” Sam pointed in front of Wesley’s boot. A trip wire crossed the path.
