Larry Nelson's New Book 'Sierra Ice' Unfolds a Long-Unsolved Mystery That Resurfaces After a Student's Disappearance

RENO, Nev., April 7, 2022 (Newswire.com) - Fulton Books author, Larry Nelson, a retired metallurgical engineer who has spent his career in the overhaul and repair of both nuclear- and conventional-powered ships, has completed his most recent book "Sierra Ice": a brilliant crime novel that follows a private detective as he chases the answers to a case that's been unsolved since the 40s. Present-day events led to this search, and since then, it has been drawing threats and danger towards those who involve themselves in this mystery.

Nelson shares, "November 1943. A lone cargo ship sailed from Cape Town, South Africa, to the United States with a cargo vital to the United States' capability to continue the war against the Axis Forces in Europe. Unknown to the ship's commanding officer, along with the cargo he was carrying, a separate cargo had also been placed aboard his ship. When he reached his destination, that cargo was secretly unloaded and transferred to a waiting armored car. The cargo was to be transported to a secure storage facility, but it never reached its destination. The vehicle was forced off the road. The three armored car employees were shot, and the cargo was stolen. Those responsible were never apprehended, and the cargo was never recovered. Seventy-five years later, a chance encounter of a misplaced letter in a Holocaust museum file in Israel by a Stanford student revealed exactly what had happened on that fateful day in November 1943. To determine if what was in the letter was factual, he decided to look into it. He immediately disappeared. Vince Nagy, a private detective, was hired to find him. What seemed like a run-of-the-mill case turned out to be anything but that. Attempts on his life and the murders of others brought in local law enforcement and the FBI."

Published by Fulton Books, Larry Nelson's riveting tale holds a 75-year-old case waiting to be unraveled, but at what cost? Follow Detective Nagy as he breaks down every missing piece of this case.

Will he be able to solve this in the end? Or will this 1943 mystery catches up with him?
