Union Army sharpshooter Jed Wells met the possibly mad artist Josephus McCade when they were prisoners in Andersonville, and he remembers the strange man's rants about a "key" to unimaginable wealth. Now that the guns of the war between North and South have fallen silent, curiosity is drawing Jed back onto the trail of the eccentric McCade. But the artist's life may soon be coming to a brutal end, thanks to a secret he will tell no one--a mystery that's pulling Jed himself into the gunsight of a killer and into a fetid quagmire of lies, greed, and vengeance that threatens to drag both men to their deaths.
