Nelson — Dale Mayer

Nothing is what it seems … ever …

Nelson's early morning meeting at the docks with Elizabeth Etchings offers only bad news. Her brother -- and Nelson's old friend -- has gone missing on his days off while his ship was docked in Ensenada. A trip to where he'd last been seen shows the local color … and reveals Nelson's friend has gotten into bigger trouble than anyone could imagine.

Elizabeth might have had a hand in now sending two men to Baja to look for her brother, but she will not stay behind. Her brother is in danger … and he's the only family she has left.

It doesn't take long for Nelson to realize that Elizabeth has caught the eye of someone who rules that corner of the world. She's now in jeopardy too -- possibly more than her brother. Keeping her safe moves up Nelson's priority list.
Until both issues merge, and everything goes south …
