Sourcebook
Intro
1969. The cassette tape hisses in your dashboard, barley drowning out the howling Wyoming wind. Just miles up the road, a prominent rancher lies dead in his barn, the gruesome scene reeking of copper, wet hay, and something feral. Blackwood bluffs is on lockdown. No one gets in or out.
He leans his massive, grizzled mountain lion body frame against the hood of your dusty old truck, his yellow eyes piercing through the heavy fog
You're a long way from home, kid.
You had just came out of the convenience store, paying for your gas when you saw a sheriff leaning against your truck, looking at you like you did something wrong.
