Sangre de Cristo

What do international intrigue, human trafficking, President Nixon’s 1972 trip to Peking, a rich shale oil and gas field, the remote Zhenbao Island, human DNA and a class ring found in the stomach of a mountain lion which almost attacked a little girl in Spanish Peaks, the hottest wildland fire ever experienced in Cuchara Valley’s history, reopening the closed coal mines on Highway 12, and a CIA operation have in common? The answer: LaVeta and Cuchara, Colorado. Steve Curry and Maggie Bell team up to thwart a sinister and bizarre plot to take over LaVeta’s rich oil and gas fields.
