"When big corporate strip-mining interests begin to take over a ranching town in southeastern Montana - wide-open coulee and bluff country - all hell breaks loose. It seems the land is fighting back; vast sage flats erupt in fire, massive storms blast down from all directions, rattlesnakes strike from out of nowhere, and an extinct buffalo wolf is heard howling in the night. .One man tries to hold back the tide of disaster caused by corporate greed: Joe Graves is a rancher, whose family has ranched this arid, harsh land for generations. .He hunts, and fishes, and considers the land an extension of himself. But what he doesn't know is that his father sold the mineral rights to the ranch. And Graves is about to find out that Dark Star [Inc.] is coming to claim those rights as well as his water." (I expect the Indians who were there before Graves Snr. were quite cross too. About Graves, that is.) .
