Overview

A boy makes a terrible discovery and must clear his family's name in this action-packed thriller. When thirteen-year-old Oz Keiller stumbles upon a dead body, his life is thrown into a tailspin. His older brother is the prime suspect in the murder, and Oz soon learns that the crime may be tied to the death of his father years earlier--a father who was accused of selling nuclear secrets to rogue governments. The fate--and livelihood--of his family is hanging by a thread, and it's up to Oz to try and crack the case, with the help of his best friend, Rusty. It's a quest that has more twists and turns than the dusty roads of New Mexico--and the answer may be closer to home than Oz ever could have imagined.
