It's Tulsa, Oklahoma at the start of the oil boom and Cherokee Lansing's rancher father is killed in a fight with the Tanner Oil Company. Cherokee plans revenge by bringing in her own wells with the help of oil expert Brad Brady and childhood friend Jim Redbird. When the oil and the money start gushing in, both Brad and Jim want to protect the land but Cherokee has different ideas. What started out as revenge for her father's death has turned into an obsession for wealth and power.

Dusty Oklahoma landscapes transform into battlegrounds as the sudden surge of oil wealth turns neighbors against each other. This period drama captures the ruthless transition from ranching life to a frantic, money-driven frenzy.
