description: Ned Carr is a miner, an irascible old coot who has held on to acres of prime real estate in the middle of Aspen's ski slopes. Carr feuds with everyone, including the ski company and eco-warriors who want to shut down his mines. Sheriff Kurt Muller is the only person with a soft spot for Carr. Following up a suspicious call, Muller rushes to Carr's mine--in time to witness the shaft explosion that kills him. Drawn into a dangerous covert war between militant greens and corporate forces grappling for control of the New West, Muller uncovers a conspiracy that could destroy his most cherished loves--the two children under his protection and the snowcapped wilderness he calls home.
