Profit-driven developers want to clear-cut, bulldoze, and bury Lake County's pristine wilderness under the infamous "monument to progress" known as Reflection Lake Resort. Bob Elliott, investigative reporter for "The Lake County Herald," is on a dangerous mission to expose the sinister connection between Reflection Lake's land developers and the corrupt county political machine. Battle lines have been drawn and the bitter war between environmentalists and developers turns ugly.
Only time will tell if an honest man, brought to his knees by murder and blackmail, will survive.
What some "Reflections In Gold" characters say about Bob Elliott:
"Bob isn't a perfect man. He has his human frailties just like all the rest of us. But, no one else around here could ever fill his shoes."

"Bob Elliott is an optimist. I think optimists have an advantage over dreamers. With all that confidence in success, they seem to actually make things happen."
