A man seeking gold in British Columbia, finding himself entangled in the mythology of the old and rough country, wondering if the local stories about a curse are true; two friends walking to a blues concert far out on the countryside, having a peculiar chance encounter with a guitar picker; a young woman pursuing luck in Hollywood, attempting to write the next trailblazing screenplay, struggling to pay the rent and not to lose herself in daydreaming along the way.
“In Search of Fiery Skies” contains eight short stories about people trying to make it. They do not always know what they are looking for and struggle to succeed. They face nature, the zeitgeist, or sometimes themselves, and they have to learn that it is not always easy to make ends meet.
