In this mystery series sequel, Dr. Cal Boyd is a former gastroenterologist who has recovered from his conflicts at North Valley Hospital, having won a large settlement for damages. His enemies are dead or in jail, and his managerial career with Encuentro Medical Group is burgeoning.

On a visit to his step-daughter Donna at Shasta Academy, he learns disturbing details about her father, Ben Hendricks. On his drive home, an unknown shooter threatens his life. Once again, Cal must play detective, because law enforcement is stymied.

Cal embarks on an odyssey that takes him back in history to the Peoples Temple, an offshoot called the Legion of God, and his conflicts with Ben, the father of his step-children. He travels up and down California pursuing a story of human trafficking, drugs, missing money from the Peoples Temple, and murder. His life is under constant treat as he unearths thirty years of corruption.

About the Author: California native Henry Rex Greene describes himself as a nearly retired physician whose hobby is writing. "I grew up in the San Gabriel and San Fernando Valleys. They provide the backdrop for many of my novels. They are America ordinaire." This is his fifth book.
