High Pocket: How much would risk to find a cavern of gold?

By Frank Zajaczkowski

What would you risk to find a cavern of gold? Your family? Your lover? Your life?

Jake Garnes risks it all in this gritty drama that takes place in Lead, South Dakota, site of the Homestake Gold Mine, the largest modern-day gold mine in the United States. Homestake is both lifeblood and destroyer, a place where dreams turn into nightmares as suddenly as a timber cracks and tunnels collapse.

When Jake falls in love with Mary Stennis, her father, Sandy, tells Jake an unbelievable story of a cavern of gold he discovered in the accident that crippled him. Jake knows such a tale can't be anything more than the wild ravings of a bitter man, yet the insidious lure of gold soon overpowers his fears. Together, they develop a plan to find the gold-lined cavern...if it exists...and claim the gold for themselves, and for all those who lost their lives in the blackness underground.
