Author Marvin Rogers has combined his knowledge of law and mineral rights into a fast-paced thriller of court intrigue and land embezzlement. The action moves from Civil War-era Bermuda to Alabama to New Orleans as the principal characters search for a mysterious document called an indenture -- a legal instrument describing a mortgage -- that disappeared during a blockade-running attempt in the 1860s. This document will prove ownership to an oil-rich tract of land . . . if the lawyer searching for it is not killed before he can make his case. Skullduggery, romance, and colorful characters and settings abound as the story develops.
