They were born and raised in a seedy New Orleans brothel before spending the next several decades becoming the wealthiest people in the world. This is the unconventional story of the Myden twins-Derrick, who has an innate business savvy and a golden touch, and Helen, a genius among mathematicians.

For years, they've combined their skills to accumulate power and wealth, mining vast amounts of gold and acquiring plenty of enemies along the way. Now, on the brink of their sixtieth birthday, they prepare to face off against their most powerful foe yet: the president of the United States.

As the president works with international bankers and politicos to take over the world's wealth, Derrick and Helen set a plan in motion to reverse this power-hungry scheme and save the day. They'll use four decades worth of collected gold to reinstitute America's monetary system...that is, if the country's military doesn't get to them first.

A high-stakes, action-filled adventure, A Touch of Gold packs tongue-in-cheek humor and political hijinks into an epic international tale, spanning multiple decades while uncovering layer after layer of shocking deception.
