Rio Blanco is a dying town, until a snake bit prospector collapses in the street, clutching a chunk of gold and gasping last words about the Lost Doubloon mine. Word spreads like wild-fire, and a cutthroat contest to find the mother lode begins...From a beautiful Mexican heiress to a Russian revolutionary, from a love-struck Yankee tinhorn to a ruthless tycoon, this rogue's gallery of desperate characters is soon hot on the trail of the dead man's find. Driven by their passions and their lust for riches beyond their wildest dreams, they're in a race that can only have one winner. Because among them is a murderer who will stop at nothing, and awaiting them in the mountains is a mine guarded by a viper's nest of treachery few can pass through unscathed...

After fifteen years in gaol, Frank Dover goes looking for hidden gold ingots. Instead he finds water and trouble; lots of both. At the age of eighteen Frank was involved in the hold-up of a mule train bringing smelted gold down from the Cedar Creek mines. A tip-off meant that before the robbery was completed the gang was arrested with the exception of Frank who was hiding in the trees minding the horses of the others. Three gold bars had already been loaded into the saddlebags and Frank takes them home and hides them. Three days later he too is arrested and, like the other members of the gang, is sentenced to fiteen years in the La Junta penitentiary. Now he is free, and payback time for all those years spent behind bars has arrived...
