The Great Depression was marked by an epidemic of bank
robberies and Tommy-gun-toting outlaws who became
household names. Hunting them down was the new U.S.
Division of Investigation—soon to become the FBI—which was
determined to nab the most dangerous gangster this country
has ever produced: Baby Face Nelson. To stop him, the
Bureau recruited talented gunman Charles Swagger, World
War I hero and sheriff of Polk County, Arkansas.
Eighty years later, Charles’s grandson Bob Lee Swagger
uncovers a strongbox containing an array of memorabilia
dating back to 1934—a federal lawman’s badge, a .45
automatic preserved in cosmoline, a mysterious gun part,
and a cryptic diagram—all belonging to Charles Swagger.
Bob becomes determined to find out what happened to his
grandfather—and why his own father never spoke of Charles.
But as he investigates, Bob learns that someone is
following him—and shares his obsession.
