“I tip my hat and bow to the amazing talents of Louis L’Amour and Beau L’Amour.”—C.J. Box, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Crossroads
“A masterful Cold War adventure.”—Elliot Ackerman, New York Times bestselling author of Sheepdogs
1961. The world is on the brink of nuclear war. Empires are crumbling. And in Barcelona, chaos is unleashed when a rogue officer of the East German Stasi attempts to blackmail a pair of struggling arms dealers. The secret—thirty tons of stolen gold hidden in an icebound wilderness at the end of the world.
Mike Fowler is a former Navy salvage diver and OSS assassin. Anton Voss is an expatriate German scientist whose past grows darker the closer anyone looks. Once they might have been enemies, yet the two share an inseparable bond: They have saved each other’s lives. But all of that is put at risk when Mike discovers Anton standing over a midnight visitor with a gun in his hand.
Now they’re on the run, allied with gangsters, pursued by the CIA, Israeli intelligence, and a shadowy cabal bent on creating an invisible empire. The trail leads from the rain-soaked docks of Marseilles to the futuristic towers of Caracas and the ruins of a secret island laboratory in Argentine Patagonia. The only way for Mike Fowler to save his oldest friends, and the woman he loves, is to unlock a decades-old mystery buried in his partner’s Nazi past . . . before it destroys them all.
Includes a special postscript by Beau L’Amour detailing the history of the original unpublished manuscript and the process of collaborating with his father both before and after his passing.

Critic Reviews
“I bow and tip my hat to the amazing talents of Louis L’Amour and Beau L’Amour for Skyring Water. Not only did Louis L’Amour thoroughly entertain me while growing up, but he continues to do so with a wholly unexpected Cold War thriller.”—C. J. Box, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Crossroads
“Without a wasted word or an unnecessary sentence, this tale of intrigue springs directly from the mind of a master storyteller—deftly balancing sacrifice, loss and terror. My advice? You’ll want to slow down the page turning and savor this gem of a read.”—Steve Berry, New York Times bestselling author of The Devil’s Bible
“There was a time when Hollywood gave us sweeping adventures, the kind of films audiences walked out of wishing the story would never end. Skyring Water brings that feeling roaring back. Rain-soaked docks. Nazi ratlines. Stolen treasure. The perilous shadows of Cold War danger. Inspired by real World War II legends, Louis L’Amour’s unfinished thriller—masterfully completed by Beau L’Amour—is drenched in the spirit of those great 1960s epics, globe-spanning, cinematic, and impossible to put down. This is pure adventure—and pure escapism—at its finest. Every story has its time. With Skyring Water, Louis L’Amour returns for one more great ride.”—Adam Makos, New York Times bestselling author of Spearhead and Devotion
“Louis and Beau L’Amour deliver a masterful Cold War adventure. What begins as a hunt for gold becomes a hunt for the truth. Skyring Water touches on the big themes—loyalty, history, and the costs of war. This novel delivers.”—Elliot Ackerman, author of Sheepdogs
“In the master storyteller’s new novel—brilliantly completed by his son Beau—Louis L’Amour unleashes a lightning-fast international thriller that roars far beyond the frontier. Raw, relentless, and packed with heart-stopping action, Skyring Water is classic adventure at its finest. Beau has done his father proud again.”—Ryan Pote, author of The Ghost City
