Pap Dockin was getting on in years and turned most of running the ranch over to his grandson, Crandall. Cran was smart and easy to like, but did he have the grit to take on the Dockin Empire? A new town, Bula's Gap, sprung up nearby and new people came with it. Some had ideas that would test young Dockin. Logan Parnell, a businessman and a greedy banker would bring trouble and worrisome problems for the Dockin Empire.Unbeknown to the Dockins, black gold was beneath the ground. Thus, the need for a new town and a gradual influx of people. A new breed of men called the Problem Solvers showed up, led by a ruthless man known only as Morris.It would take everything Cran learned from his Daddy Pap and Mama Vivian as he affectionately called them, to stop the darkness about to lay siege to the land. When things looked as if the Dockin Empire was safe and about to be back to normal, the root cause for all the trouble shows up.
