Description

In 1950, a long-lost fortune is unearthed from the depths of a Montana lake. Inside the rusting hulk of a steam locomotive, three bodies are discovered with bloody clues to a mystery that has gone unsolved for over forty years. The story begins in 1906, when banks across the western United States were plagued by a ruthless bank robber known as the 'Butcher Bandit'. The killer emptied safes and murdered all witnesses, leaving behind only terror. In desperation, the US Government called upon Isaac Bell, the country's top detective, to track down the elusive Bandit. As Bell pursues the killer across Arizona, Colorado, and San Francisco during the great quake, he finds himself in a desperate fight for survival. The stakes have changed, and Bell is no longer just trying to catch his man - he must also protect himself from the killer's deadly wrath.
