Men risk everything to journey across the West, seeking their fortune at Silent Mine. They don't come back. In 1879, Dylan Decker rides his trusty steed Skydance across California in pursuit one of those lost men, Thomas Winstanley, whose wife needs to know if she's been jilted or widowed. In the process, Decker encounters a town full of locals who clam up every time the mine is mentioned, two cutthroat bandits with their own horror stories, and a group of natives who understand what truly lurks in the dark recesses of Silent Mine. But none of them can deter Decker from keeping his promise to Mrs. Winstanley. He'll solve the mystery, regardless of cost. Will he survive the horrors in front of him or will he share the fate of the man he seeks in C.M. Saunders's action-packed western horror novella, Silent Mine?
