When Tell and Orrin Sackett find a journal written by their father, Colburn Sackett, who disappeared in the Colorado mountains before the Civil War, they mount an expedition to retrace his route. He was part of a group of men searching for treasure, mined and buried by French soldiers in the 1790s. The Sacketts' arrival in New Orleans to make inquiries attracts the attention of both friends and enemies. Nativity Pettigrew, responsible for killing their father and others of that first expedition, now joins the second in hopes of eliminating this new threat and finding the treasure. The expedition fails to find the exact location of the treasure, but the body of the elder Sackett is found and his killer exposed. In a fight to the death with Tell, Pettigrew comes out second best. Time period: 1875-1879.
