When Rod falls hard for Manfred’s long-suffering and estranged wife Terry, the loathing between the men reaches a breaking point. But unbeknown to both a bigger drama is unfolding, a plot to destroy the gold mine, whatever the cost. Can the mortal enemies move past their differences to save the mine?
