Farinet's Gold

Set against the backdrop of the mountains, the narrative follows Maurice Farinet, who, after learning about a hidden gold vein from his mentor Sage, becomes an outlaw after making counterfeit coins. Following his second prison escape, he finds refuge among locals, particularly Josephine, who aids him. As law enforcement closes in, Farinet faces a dilemma when offered a deal to serve a short sentence. This tale, inspired by true events, explores themes of independence and the cost of freedom within a richly depicted rural landscape.
