Rodrigo's Treasure Vern Lamplot

A cartel drug scout on a southern Arizona mountain stumbles across an abandoned mine of lost silver.




Grabbing what he can, Rodrigo returns to Rocky Point, Mexico, and connects with Chuy Ruiz, an old high school friend. But Chuy, a known drug dealer and a covert police informant, is someone Rodrigo doesn't trust.




On the run and blaming his friend, Rodrigo is pursued by his psychopathic cartel boss and Mexican police, who don't believe his story.




Can Rodrigo keep his treasure? The mountain gives up its secrets only grudgingly.
