Description
Set in Colorado’s rugged mining country at the turn of the twentieth century, this sweeping historical novel follows a young woman drawn into a world where the promise of gold masks stark inequality and dangerous working conditions. As fortunes rise and tensions between mine owners and laborers intensify, she must navigate shifting loyalties, class divisions, and the limited choices available to women seeking independence. Richly atmospheric and meticulously researched, the novel explores ambition, exploitation, resilience, and the human cost of the American dream.
