| Sally Alder is a bar singer turned history professor. She's offered the Dunwoodie Chair of women's history at the University of Wyoming, but mostly she is working on Meg Dunwoodie's biography. There's a rumor that there is buried treasure on the property, and a skinhead (distantly related to Dunwoodie) joins a militia. They try to break in and find the supposed treasure and try to scare Sally Alder off with skinhead/hate tactics. | ||
