An empty crime scene. A blood-spattered stone. And a 400-year-old mystery.
An entire colony disappeared off the face of the earth. It's America's greatest mystery, and it happened centuries ago. Now it's happened again.
Federal Agent Dale Conley specializes in the unusual, and he's seen it all. Except for this. An entire community has vanished overnight. One hundred forty-seven people. The only clue is the word ROANOKE chiseled into a blood-spattered stone.
Dale knows that in the 1930s a series of stones was discovered—stones with carved messages that allegedly told the fate of the Roanoke Colony. When Dale finds more stones with cryptic messages, it's clear he has a copycat criminal on his hands. Each of the stones lead Dale to a few more of the missing people, and he must solve the stones' riddles correctly—or the hostages are killed.
Dale soon realizes that the kidnapper knows the details of his past. Including his dark secrets. Now, as Dale races to find the stones, he must come head-on with his own demons to have a chance at saving the missing people.

A mysterious artifact. A kidnapping. And a cowboy detective.
Barnaby Wilcox is one low-down, rotten scoundrel -- the perfect credentials for the Wild West’s only private eye.
His current case: tracking down a kettle. That’s right, a kettle. Times are tough. He’ll take what he can get. Besides, the kettle in question is a ransom item. Kidnapping cases are always fun.
Rumor has it the kettle is cursed. Everyone who touches it ends up in a pine box. But the kettle puts a different kind of curse on ol’ Barnaby. It was once owned by slaves, and Barnaby, well, he’s been doing his darndest for the last twenty years to drink away grim memories of the black soldiers who died needlessly under his command during the Civil War.
But he can’t delay forever. He has to put away the bottles and the memories if he’s going to find the dang thing. The kidnappers are getting impatient. And more people are turning up dead.
An intriguing, action-packed novel full of page-turning intrigue, The Clements Kettle is the first book in the Barnaby Wilcox series of Wild West mysteries.
Fans of private detective fiction will feel right at home, as will fans of over-the-top Western movies! Start the Barnaby Wilcox adventure with Book 1: The Clements Kettle!
