Description
In 1933, the Yukon Territory is in the tight grip of the Depression. From the remote village of Porter’s Landing, to the dark side of Dawson City—where it’s fair game to “mine the miners”—follow the adventures of a rich cast of characters as real and honest and flawed as all of us. Young Jack Marian never guessed that his summer job, working for his mentor high in the Yukon hills, would bring forth such depths of greed and evil. The deadly chain of events leads from the blackness of the Turn Again gold mine, to a desperate adventure on board the sternwheeler “Lady Black”, to raucous bars and taverns where murderous plots are hatched. All in the quest for another man’s gold—and a harbinger of the worldwide evil to come. Behind it all, a story of a love that was missed and then reached for.
