Ben Badger

On the rough Nevada frontier, Ben Badger is just another prospector chasing a dream that always seems one creekbed out of reach. When a run of luck brings gold dust to his pan—and a pair of claim jumpers to his camp—Ben's simple life turns into a fight for survival. Joined by the drifting newcomer Hank, Ben must face the dangers of the wild, the treachery of desperate men, and the hardest gamble of all: trusting a stranger.From wind-scoured hills to the lawless streets of Virginia City, Ben's journey is one of grit, hard-won friendship, and the search for a place to finally call home. In a land where fortunes rise and fall with every sunrise, one prospector's tale proves that the richest rewards aren't always found in gold.
