About the Author

Thomas Fenske is a North Carolina-based storyteller with deep Texas roots. A lifelong road-tripper and adventurer, he's chased chicken-fried steak, barbeque, and Tex-Mex across endless highways, canoed the Guadalupe's rapids, hiked West Texas mountains and rafted the Rio Grande-ever in pursuit of the next great slice of life. When he's not crafting adventure/mysteries or delving into family histories for fiction fodder, he's wrangling a beagle and a houseful of rescue cats alongside his wife, Gretchen-proving that fierce tales and full hearts go hand in hand.

From the Inside Flap

One man's obsession fueled by a dying man's last words.

Sam Milton was just an average guy, until a cryptic deathbed confession changed everything: "There's a gold mine out there..."

That whisper ignites a decade-long obsession that consumes Sam's life. He abandons everything—love, friendship, even his own moral compass—as he lies, trespasses, and digs deeper into the wilderness and begins to question his own sanity.

With every dead end, The Fever grows stronger. When a new clue surfaces, so does a chance at redemption—and a chance at love. But Sam's not ready to let go. Not yet.

Now, he's planning one final trip. One last shot at glory. And this time, he won't come back empty-handed...if he comes back at all.

How far would you go to chase a dream that could destroy you?
