A new house in a new town is the legacy for wounded veteran Tim Fitzgerald. But as he becomes more deeply involved with his new community, he is shocked by the depths of corruption and criminality. The Chamber of Commerce said Wellborough, Colorado, had it all. He doubted they really meant murder, drug and human trafficking, systemic political corruption, fraud and a tradition that rewarded the few at the expense of the many. Helping out a local lawyer turned into the shocking realization that the greed of those in charge can spiral out of control with a disinterested citizenry. A lowlife wrongly imprisoned for murder set off the chain of Fitzgerald's discoveries putting his life and those he knows in jeopardy. Amid his struggle, he wonders if corruption is not the natural order of life.
