The Caretaker
Randy Karson bears a great burden. He's struggled to take care of the Stratton family for generations, fighting to keep treasure hunters off their land. He's raised them, killed for them, healed their injuries, and mourned their untimely deaths. Unable to stop them from harming themselves, he's stood by as Stratton mothers took their own lives, leaving their newborn infants to his care. Devoting every minute of his existence to them, Randy has never had time to live his own life. Emotionally drained from years of mourning her husband, Caitlyn Emerson accepts the property her grandfather has left her in his will. Despite her enraged pride, and the resentment she feels towards her grandfather, Caitlyn moves her kids out to the Stratton Mansion where she soon finds a renewed faith in love and life. Her bond with the caretaker grows stronger as they're attacked by trespassers who want access to the Stratton gold mine, as a vengeful spirit awakens to demand an eye for an eye, and ancient forces lay claim to her teenage daughters. Caitlyn and her children become pawns in a power struggle between legendary beings and a militant group intent on forcing Randy to choose a side in the ultimate land dispute.
