Writer: Sam Dann
Rating: ***
Sam Dann's 'Ton of Gold' is a fun and suspenseful journey however a bit drawn out. The pursuit of yellow metal is always an enticing story, and the listener wonders how he/she would act if put in the position of the treasure hunters. An additional plot twist would have helped fill the episode, or better character development through additional dialogue. Worth a listen; I give the episode 3 out of 5 stars. - Aquarium
