Eight-year-old Josh Schuler has been kidnapped.

When his grandfather, Max Schuler, is called with demands, hes cautioned not to call the police. He decides to call his long time friend, Grant Franklin instead.

Grant, and ex-Navy SEAL Ron Mize, show up to see what they can do, and in short order discover just how serious the situation really is. It doesnt take them long to decide that, not only do they need to save the boy, but they need to make sure that this cant happen again.

The quest takes them from Chicago, and the waters of Lake Michigan, to the mountains of eastern Oregon.

With their old friend, Frank Kerin, and using cars, trucks, boats, airplanes, and even horses, one bit of information leads to another until a shootout right out of the Old West decides the outcome.
