Synopsis:
Blackstone Mountain is a drama set in the desert high country of Southern Utah, near Kanab. It follows John Harrison, a 60-year-old retired Army Airborne Ranger living off the grid for 15 years after the tragic deaths of his wife and daughter. His solitude is shattered when Zoe, a pregnant 20-year-old woman escaping prison, kidnaps him. Despite her initial hostility, they form a bond before U.S. Marshals recapture her.
Zoe asks John to take custody of her unborn child, fearing the baby’s custody might fall into the hands of her rapist's vengeful parents. John agrees, despite the risk of facing Clark Lehman, a psychopath whose son Zoe killed in self-defense. After Clark’s failed attempts to intimidate John, he is eventually arrested for trying to murder him.
Years later, Zoe and Clark are released from prison around the same time. Zoe, now part of John’s family, tries to rebuild her life with her daughter, Victoria-Elizabeth. Meanwhile, Clark’s rage turns deadly, as he embarks on a revenge-fueled killing spree, targeting everyone he blames for his losses. In the end, Clark Lehman pays the ultimate price before his final act of vengeance is realized.
