Book one of , The Gold House, The Discovery, starts at the beginning where you will read about the 1937 discovery of a fabulous treasure by Doc and Babe Noss at Victorio Peak. Read the special “camp notes” that tell the day-to-day events at the “base camp” the family called the “rock house.” Learn how Doc was murdered and how Ova fought endlessly to keep the military from stealing their treasure.

Book two of The Gold House, The Lies, The Thefts, tells how Ova Noss spent years trying to raise the treasure, but in 1955 she was forcibly removed from her legitimate claim site by the White Sands military. It was then that new names crept onto the scene when seven military people from a nearby Air Force base claimed the gold belonged to them. They called themselves the “Seven Heirs.”

Book three of the The Gold House, Executive Order, is a modern replay of what the White Sands military did to Ova Noss during her years at the Peak after Doc was murdered. The story begins in the 1990s when more deceitful behavior was played out against Terry Delonas, Ova’s grandson. False overbillings and illegal changes to an agreed-upon license contract are cited, not to mention tactics like intimidation and extortion. 

The Noss Gold, a non-fiction work, presents a thorough analysis of the theft of 36.5 tons of gold from the Noss treasure at White Sands Missile Range by President Richard Nixon during the final months of the Watergate scandal, a winding trail of deceit, lies and concealments that flooded the public stage from 1972 to 1974. The proven history of Nixon’s interest in the Noss gold predates the Watergate break-in matter by only two years.

Doc & Babe is an historic novel based on the life experiences of Milton Ernest “Doc” Noss and his wife, Ova Mae Noss, during their short time together. There, hidden within a large hill in the Hembrillo Basin, they discovered a treasure of great value; ancient gold bars, chests of jewelry, gold coins, and precious artifacts. John Clarence has taken the liberty to enhance the storyline of their lives from a perspective not yet explored.
