In the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountains, among the vineyards and orchards, in the beginning of the 20th century, Hezekiah MacKenzie is a one-hundred-six-year-old man who dies without telling anyone the location of his goldmine. When Maggie and her buddies decide to find Hezekiah's goldmine, they encounter more adventure and danger than they bargained for.
