Synopsis

The Gold of San Xavier is a story of greed, murder, and love set in the 200-year-old Spanish colonial church near Tucson, Ariz.

Nick Genoa, a freelance journalist and former newspaper reporter is heading to southern Arizona to do a story about the art conservation project inside the mission by a group of European art conservators. Before Genoa arrives, a stash of ancient gold and precious relics is found, a beloved priest is murdered, and the treasure is missing. Genoa can't resist the investigation or his attraction to the head of the conservation project, beautiful Rosa Zizzo.
