At stake, is the large and very valuable Bradford ranch adjoining their reservation. It had been left to the tribe by the owner, William Bradford, in a 1905 will that disappeared in 1909 when he was found dead under mysterious circumstances. The will reappears briefly in 1990's after it was found by Leela Thayer, a local artist, only to be stolen by a tribal member in an attempt to extort money from one of the Bradford heirs. The thief ends up murdered, and Emil teams up with Leela Thayer to recover the will. The Bradford heir turns out to have connections with a major crime family in Los Angeles and calls for help with devastating results. More murders, mayhem, and a bomb explosion that almost costs Emil his life, soon follow and the small city of Coeur d'Alene flows with the blood of the innocent.

It has taken Liverpool almost half a century to come to terms with the musical, cultural and now economic legacy of the Beatles and popular music. At times the group was negatively associated with sex and drugs images surrounding rock music: deemed unacceptable by the city fathers, and unworthy of their support. Liverpudlian musicians believe that the musical legacy of the Beatles can be a burden, especially when the British music industry continues to brand the latest (white) male group to emerge from Liverpool as ’the next Beatles’. Furthermore, Liverpudlians of perhaps differing ethnicities find images of ’four white boys with guitars and drums’ not only problematic in a ’musical roots’ sense, but for them culturally devoid of meaning and musically generic. The musical and cultural legacy of the Beatles remains complex. In a post-industrial setting in which both popular and traditional heritage tourism have emerged as providers of regular employment on Merseyside, major players in what might be described as a Beatles music tourism industry have constructed new interpretations of the past and placed these in such an order as to re-confirm, re-create and re-work the city as a symbolic place that both authentically and contextually represents the Beatles.
