Synopsis

Origin

1896. Left behind in the family manor, young Mary plays hide and seek with the servant, Beth. But as the game unfolds, she realises Beth isn’t the only one searching for her… Something else is lurking in the dark. And it’s ready to play.

Sarah's Oil

Sarah Rector, an African-American girl born in Oklahoma Indian Territory in the early 1900s, believes there is oil beneath the barren land she’s allotted, and her faith is proven right. As greedy oil sharks close in, Sarah turns to her family, friends, and some Texas wildcatters to maintain control of her oil-rich land, eventually becoming among the nation's first female African-American millionaires—at eleven years old.
