In 1864, during the American War Between the States, a special train leaves Atlanta, Georgia with wounded Union soldiers and heads north. It also carries a secret cargo for the President of the United States. While en route, Confederate soldiers attack the train near Morristown, Tennessee and hijack the precious cargo which disappears for nearly one-hundred and fifty years. Paul and Tina Mouchette find an unusual artifact and a personal diary written by Paul's great-great-grandfather who fought for the Confederate Army during the Civil War. After doing in-depth research, they believe a large amount of gold is hidden in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in eastern Tennessee. Before Paul and Tina can realize their goal of finding the gold, career criminals and an unscrupulous politician attempt to deprive the couple of their just rewards. However, not all is what it seems and the mystery of Lincoln's Treasure continues to deepen.
Humor, the Horror, and the Heart of the Badge is a must read for all who are interested in gaining an inside look at the world, the life, and the mind of cops. Virtually anyone will find this memoir engaging, sometimes shocking and sad, and always informative. It provides persons who are not in the law enforcement profession a glance into the everyday realities of those whose calling is to be a police officer. Those who belong to the profession, including myself with over forty-two years behind the badge, will discover that Chris Schultz's story triggers a myriad of vivid memories that are happy and even funny, yet at other times horrific and tearful. Chris opens himself up to you, the reader, as he paints the mural of his life as a cop. He gives you glimpses into events that made national news, and you will meet officers he knew who were at their epicenter. Through it all he shows that cops are people like everyone else, yet with a high calling that assumes far higher risk than many occupations.~From the ForewordC. C. Ibsen ~From the ForewordC. C. Ibsen
