In Dark River of Gold, Jim Traveler transports readers deep into the heart of Africa's pristine country in a tale of two men's pursuit of a treasure more valuable than first believed -- more than a king's ransom. Forced to cross half the continent in the midst of a civil war to reach the hidden treasure, the men and their teams must fight their way through harsh terrain, drought, treacherous wildlife, and deal with political bribery, assassination plots, and deception. Murder of family and love of woman cannot and will not detour either man in his relentless quest to retrieve tons of gold, or his resolve to kill the other. Discovery and revenge take both men on the months' long journey for incredible wealth, and for personal destiny and triumph.
