The mountains near Jerome, Arizona, guard a secret ... an unsolved mystery that intertwines a young girl's future, an old man's past, and the fate of a teenager's life. Beneath the ghost town that clings to Cleopatra Hill, a labyrinth of abandoned mine tunnels hides a vein of silver ore mixed with pure gold-a silver lode. Decades ago, the silver lode's discovery led to murder. Will more murders follow? Historian Paul Russell is at risk of losing his job, and the woman he loves, Marty Greenlaw. He doesn't have time to chase legends and ghost stories. But when a student drops clues to a 70-year-old case on his desk-a case connected to the silver lode-Paul seizes the chance to work with Marty and win her back. Marty loves Paul but feels she cannot marry him. When she learns finding the silver lode can save a dying child, guilt from her little sister's death resurfaces. Marty agrees to delve into the mine's history. As Paul and Marty's search deepens, suspicious deaths occur. When Paul's son disappears, the case becomes personal. Will they find the truth in time to save Paul's son and the little girl? And before greed triggers more crime? Will they survive to build a future together?
