About this ebook

A legendary cold case from Arizona history may help solve the suspicious death of an Apache boy in this mystery series debut.

More than a century ago, Maj. Joseph Wham was killed during a payroll robbery in Arizona Territory. The case was never solved, leaving behind a legacy of death and distrust. Now the mysterious killing of a young Apache boy has local law enforcement wondering if the tragic incident might be connected to the curse of Major Wham’s lost payroll.

For Dep. Bren Allred and Apache Tribal Policeman Allen Victor, the nineteenth-century mystery may be their only hope for justice. But the two law officers must contend with local politics, cultural differences, and limited resources.

As dangers mount, so does their list of suspects—which includes ranchers, activists, and an unknown horseman. Against the expansive backdrop of historic places, open vistas, Native American culture, and rural life, The Wham Curse tells an authentic tale of the Old and New West.
