Joshua McGuire and the fire-scarred teenage twins he kidnapped from their Foster Homes happen upon and rescue a lost four year-old girl in the Redwoods of coastal northern California during a deer hunt. To their surprise, they are rewarded by the parents with a check for $10,000. Being the schemer that he is, Joshua comes up with a plan to get rich at the art of search and rescue. He secretly pays a friend to pretend he's lost so that Joshua and the twins can rescue him. Instant fame! After another 'fake' search and rescue of a homeless man, Joshua goes on television and the donations begin to pour in. At the height of their fame, a murderer escapes from Pelican Bay Prison near Crescent City, California. To maintain their reputation as master trackers, Joshua and the twins must join the manhunt with an order to shoot on sight. But everything changes when the hunters become the hunted.

For those into psychology, this action-packed adventure story has it all--love, hatred, envy, trust, betrayal, courage, cowardice, loyalty, and a huge dose of personal sacrifice. You'll want to travel to Crescent City and meet the people this story is based upon.
