description: Buffy meets Deadwood in a dark wildly imaginative historical fantasyNevada 1869: Beyond the pitiless 40-Mile Desert lies Golgotha a cattle town that hides more than its share of unnatural secrets. The sheriff bears the mark of the noose around his neck; some say he is a dead man whose time has not yet come. His half-human deputy is kin to coyotes. The mayor guards a hoard of mythical treasures. A bankers wife belongs to a secret order of assassins. And a shady saloon owner whose fingers are in everyones business may know more about the towns true origins than hes letting on.A haven for the blessed and the damned Golgotha has known many strange events but nothing like the primordial darkness stirring in the abandoned silver mine overlooking the town. Bleeding midnight an ancient evil is spilling into the world and unless the sheriff and his posse can saddle up in time Golgotha will have seen its last dawnand so will all of Creation.
