Set in the Washington Territory in 1854, the series follows the matriarchs of two very different families: the Van Nesses, a dynasty of wealth and privilege led by Anderson’s Constance, and the Abandons, a found family of orphans and outcasts fiercely protected by Headey’s Fiona Nolan. The families find their fates linked by two crimes, an awful secret, star-crossed love, and a piece of land over a silver lode. Their collision in a place just beyond the reach of justice echoes the perpetual American struggle between the haves and have-not. That collision sets the stage for a story of passion, betrayal, and survival.

Why was this show cancelled? Netflix is washed. This is a great show! The story was engaging, the action wasn't forced nor was the drama. I hope another streaming service picks it up.
