They dug for forgotten gold beneath the burning desert sun… and uncovered something men were willing to kill for.

When drifter Clay Moran and his hard-luck partner Jess Rainer stumble onto a buried strongbox in the lonely badlands, they think fortune has finally smiled on them. But the chest holds more than missing loot from an old stage robbery—it holds secrets tied to murder, betrayal, and a gang of ruthless killers who never stopped searching for it.

Now every outlaw between the border and the mountains wants the treasure back.

Hunted across the desert by gunmen, bounty hunters, and crooked lawmen, Moran and Rainer must decide whether the loot is worth dying for—or whether survival means walking away from the greatest find either man has ever seen.

Because in the West, buried gold has a way of burying men with it.

MISSING LOOT is a hard-driving classic Western packed with gun smoke, greed, and deadly desert justice.
