But when both his night bartender and the sellers are murdered at his saloon Porter has to find out what the mysterious artifacts are all about.

He is the author of many short stories and several ongoing novel series including Cowboys & Cthulhu, #SAVANT, Dark Trails, and the Brutal Sword Saga under the not-so-secret pen name of James Alderdice. He is a great fan of sword & sorcery, ghosts and lost ruins, so of course he lives in Utah.
