A fabulous fortune in Aztec treasure was said to be hidden away in the Guadalupe Mountains, all that remained of the long-dead Tenoctitlan race. But finding it was the key, for the Guadalupes were not only vast and dangerous, they were also inhabited by Apaches who considered them to be sacred ground, and had sworn to kill any invader.
Pedro Mantez knew where the treasure lay, but before he could mount an expedition, he needed protection. He chose to hire the best … Shane Preston and his partner, old Jonah Jones.
Along the way they would tangle with robbers, bloodthirsty Indians and, in some cases, their own obsessive greed. Guns would blaze and men would die. But the real enemy remained in the shadows throughout it all, content to watch as the Mexican rancher and his evil companions destroyed each other. He was the Aztec god of war, destruction and death!
Roger Norris-Green was born in Brighton, UK and emigrated with his parents to Australia when he was a schoolboy. Since leaving Unley High School in South Australia, he has written 140 published westerns under 6 pen names, plus 2 under his own name.
Roger had his first western ‘Apache Crossing’ accepted by the Cleveland Publishing Company when he was a young man in his early 20s, just married, living in the Adelaide Hills. The pen name he used for his very first western was Cole Shelton. He went on to write his ‘Shane and Jonah’ series under that pen name. Many of his westerns have received ‘Best Western of the Month’ awards. Roger lives with his wife Elaine in Moonta Bay, South Australia. Although retired, he is still writing.
