Sary's Gold

A raw, and beautiful young widow, changes into a ruthless, outlaw-gold-miner while battling a brutal mountain outpost, and one obsessed man unsure if he wants her dead... or... alive. Upon the shooting death of her young husband by her brother Seb, Sary is forced into her brother's charge... neither is pleased with this arrangement, but it's the 1880's; women have no say. He's an impotent, sadistic dreamer with ideas of striking gold, using his sister as his mule. Sary finds herself in a surreal nightmare... living under a tarp, panning for gold, and looked on lustfully by the debauched in the vicious Big Bear California gold-mining town. Her rape, the accidental killing of her attackers, the death of her brother in an abandoned mine shaft, the discovery of a gold vein as big as Texas, plus, surviving the hard scrabble land as winter comes and goes, Sary becomes a thing of legend and witchery as she is hunted as fair game. Sary plots her revenge against the outpost and her tormentors in slap-down not seen since High Noon, with the unexpected help from the one unlikely young man, Sary's come to love. Sary's Gold is generously illustrated with archival photos. Also, available as a Feature script.
