  The Kind Redemption

  Eli Kind stood at the edge of Centennial Valley, gazing toward the hills that had shaped his family’s fate. His hands were roughened by work, his mind burdened by questions left unanswered. The mystery of his missing uncle, Ezra, had gnawed at him for years, but now the search was more than just a personal journey—it was a path that would lead him deep into the heart of his family’s legacy. A legacy intertwined with the legend of the Thoen Stone and a secret too powerful to remain buried. 
  Though the Kind and Anderson ranches flourished, the encroaching Gold Rush and the promise of riches had brought more than just miners into the area. The land was filling with men—some seeking fortune, others seeking justice—and more than a few seeking revenge. Eli knew that the answers to his questions were as buried as the treasures of the hills themselves, but he was determined to find them, no matter the cost. 
  In the town of Deadwood, where the echoes of Wild Bill Hickok’s gunshot still lingered in the air, new alliances would be forged, and old ghosts would rise from the shadows. Eli’s search would lead him into the paths of historical figures—Teddy Roosevelt, Seth Bullock, and even the legendary Crazy Horse. Each step brought him closer to the truth, and yet, each turn in the road left him questioning what he believed was real. 
  Was the Kind family bound by fate—or by a curse? 
  The winds of the past were stirring, and the land called to Eli, urging him forward. But with every discovery, the line between friend and foe blurred, and he would soon learn that some truths come with a cost. 
  And sometimes, redemption isn’t just about finding the past—it’s about confronting it.

  Your mission: Stop the South African nuclear test! 
  “The scuttlebutt is when you go to sea with Mac, you're in for a frigging great adventure!"— Professor John B. Rosenman (Ret.), Norfolk State University 
  In early 1989, ten years following an actual 1979 joint Israeli/South African nuclear test near Prince Edward Islands, known as the Vela Incident, South Africa was negotiating the end of apartheid. The regime had built six nuclear bombs, but had announced to the World it was dismantling five. The regime was also working on a small suitcase nuke. Israeli Intelligence got word of a pending nuclear test on Prince Edward Island and informed the U.S. State department. Working through the Commanders of the U.S. Pacific Submarine Fleet and the U.S. Atlantic Submarine Fleet, the U.S. State Department assigned Mac McDowell, as the new skipper of USS Teuthis, to onload an Israeli Shayetet 13 commando unit in the Falkland Islands and head into the waters near the Prince Edward Islands to get the facts and, if possible, stop any nuclear weapons test.
