Callahan's Gold (Southwest Desert Series book 3)
“This was Sharkey's home, still his resting place, in fact. And the whole feeling was eerie and unsettling. Yet Dodge looked as though he were quite at ease in the old miner's former abode. Never mind the fact that the Indian pot containing Sharkey's remains sat on the table.
"That you're a sun seeker," Dodge explained with a slightly crooked smile beneath that craggy mustache. "Sharkey would say that gold was just rock that had captured a piece of the sun." "Oh, yes. That's a little silly, ...don't you think?" Dodge shrugged. Tory couldn't help noticing that his shoulders were broad and square inside his casual cotton sports shirt. Tiny curls crept alluringly along the vee of his open collar. "Maybe. Depends on how you feel about the gold." "And if you believe it's there." "Don't you?" He looked at her curiously, and when she didn't answer right away he asked, "Then why are you here?" "Oh, I don't know. Inquisitive, I suppose. He was my father, and I'm curious about what he was doing in those mountains all those years." She tried to sound nonchalant, as if she didn't really care and hadn't lain awake most of the night puzzling over the strange life of Sharkey Carsen.MoreLess
