Jasper Gray has a rare gift. He's a dowser, capable of seeking out-and finding-precious metals and gemstones and wresting them from unremarkable rock. He's a man with a mission whose life is going nowhere. Jasper's future is threatened, haunted by the ghosts of his past. There's one whose destiny lies along a similar path, whose efforts spawn treachery. If Jasper's not cautious, the day will come, soon, when the two of them are at each other's throats. In the end only one can win, and Jasper's genes have already predicted the winner. His only hope is that a forged bond of friendship will outweigh kinship...and overcome the shadow of Gray heritage.
