Treasure & Dirt
In a dying opal town in the middle of the desert, law and order are little more than myths. Thieves raid the mines, zealots preach salvation to the lost, and billionaire magnates play god. When a miner is found beheaded and left to decompose in the depths of his own small claim, big-city homicide detective Ivan Lucic is sent to investigate. Assigned to him is former local constable Nell Buchanan, who knows how this place really works — and how it warps people. Together, they're drawn into a labyrinth of secrets, greed, and old sins that won't stay buried. As the case twists into something darker and more surreal, Ivan and Nell can't tell whether it's the town that's unravelling or themselves
Saturday Night Live
Saturday Night Live is an Emmy Award-winning late-night comedy showcase.

As The New York Times noted on the occasion of the show's Emmy-winning 25th Anniversary special in 1999, "in defiance of both time and show business convention, 'SNL' is still the most pervasive influence on the art of comedy in contemporary culture." At the close of the century, "Saturday Night Live" placed seventh on Entertainment Weekly's list of the Top 100 Entertainers of the past fifty years.
