Dr. Travis Roan hunts bad people, working for the family foundation begun by his grandfather. He and his dog, Bear, arrive in Kansas searching for the Nazi criminal, Rudolph Bormann, who was been spotted by a former resident of the Nazi camp were Borman was administrator. Roan, who is searching for his father, Ransom, meets Kansas State Trooper Skottie Foster, who helps with the search.

At age 94 Borman reigns over Purity First church. Wanted for many Nazi atrocities, the two investigators discover that he may be linked to the disappearance of many Kansas citizens. Since he has been in Kansas since 1950, the list of the missing is long.

I enjoy this author's work, and find that this tale, too, is a good read. Bear, Roan's dog and partner, is a wonderful character but responds only to commands in a strange language.
