“Wait!” Cash stopped me. “You said this is all about the gold. Now, everyone that was after that woman is dead and there’s no one to corroborate your story.”

“You’re absolutely right, Cash.” I pulled the coin out of my pocket and flipped it to him with a smirk. As I walked away, I could envision the wonder on their faces as they stared down at the only piece I’d kept for myself.
I didn’t need to see their reactions. I could hear it in their voices as I strolled to the exit in satisfaction.
“Is that…”
“Aztec gold.”
