Shrine of the Apache

A rapturous, perhaps obsessive, tale of seven cities of gold has led hundreds, if not thousands, to their demise or to a lasting mental weakness over the past several centuries. Is this myth or truth?

The patriarch of the generations-old, dysfunctional Burns family has bequeathed a lasting memory of an irrefutable ordeal to family members who barely know one another.

Shrine of the Apache is an exciting 21st Century story of temptation, infatuation, and greed that leads the kin on a quest for what may only be legend, in a place that is historically notorious, and where the lore and the lure are unnatural.

Historian George Johnson wrote: "Everyone who goes into the mountains leaves behind a little bit of themselves."
