Hoping that her new mining partner will be dazzled by the necessary drill she€s bringing, Candice is determined to make her fortune despite the gender barrier.

His family€s vineyard is bordering on bankrupt and it€s up to him to save the homestead. Easier said than done, due to his newly discovered claustrophobic streak and what he€s beginning to suspect are attempts on his life.
