Summary
Summary: Bounded by fate, Mr. Faehner stands raedy to fulfill a lifetime's ambition to find the silver! By his assertions, it lies somewhere in the extent of the vast "beyond"--beyond the reach of the long-ago played-out tunnels of the Pequea Silver Mine he has since come to own. He believes, as he has since he was young, that an unbelievable quantity and quality of the precious ore exists there, and he has spend his life in pursuit of it. Then, on the very day before the truth of its descovery can be made possible, he is prevailed upon by an inveigling young reporter who as crashed one of his momentous "moments of my life" parties. Ingtrigued by the reporter's tenacithy and integrity under duress, Mr. Faehner grants him an exclusive never-before given interview--the chance of a life time. Amid the hours-long discussion, the reporter is taken on an extraordinary journey into the billionaire's private life. The storied past of intentional and unintentional achievement, of adversaries come-to-life once again, is told All were part of the hope for finding, for the silver!
