POWDER RIVER - Season 1. Episode 07: The Lost Mine

Saturday, July 19th, 2008 by Book Guy | No Comments »

Join former lawman turned rancher Britt MacMasters and his son Chad as they begin a new life for themselves in Clearmont, Wyoming … but Britt’s past returns to haunt him, as one of the toughest outlaw gangs in the west is headed towards Clearmont for revenge!

Powder River is performed in the style of a classic old time radio show, not dissimilar to the Six Shooter, but the production quality is very much in the 21st century with crystal clear stereo sound, masterful use of sound effects, and a completely original music score.

Each episode is a story in its own right so the episodes can be listened to individually, but we’d recommend you start at episode 1 and work your way through them consecutively to get the maximum enjoyment.

In this episode, Chad learns about the legend of a lost mine in the hills.
