She vanished with a forged letter. But the truth lies deeper—in shadow, swamp, and Southern deceit...
When millionaire Graves receives a heart-wrenching letter from his daughter Myrtle, claiming she’s run off for love, the Bradys aren’t convinced. The handwriting’s hers—but the story doesn’t add up.
Old and Young King Brady follow the trail from the glittering hotels of New York to the murky backstreets of Charleston and into the lawless Florida wilds. Their quarry? A ruthless Southern colonel, a foppish young conspirator, and a hidden ring of kidnappers with plans worth $50,000—and blood on their hands.
As voodoo charms, forged warrants, and double-crosses pile up, the Bradys must navigate shotgun law, gator-infested swamps, and crooked plantations to rescue Myrtle before it’s too late.
But when every “gentleman” hides a weapon and every swamp cabin could be a trap, even the greatest detectives in America may find themselves outmatched.
