Looking down upon Christopher Payton, Cora Colton can’t believe she even
doubts saying yes to his proposal. From a good family, wealthy, and
charming, Christopher is perfect for her. However, staring down at the
band of gold and diamonds, she hesitates. Something is missing,
something is wrong, but she just doesn’t know what that something is.
After her father’s untimely death, Cora travels to Tacoma and learns
that she is now the owner of his gold claim in Dawson City, Canada.
Throwing caution to the wind, she leaves her ring on the table, and
departs for Canada and the adventure of a lifetime.
Arriving in the canvas tent town of Skagway on edge of the Klondike
trail, Cora catches the attention of Flynn O’Neill, an Irishman who has
lived on the trail guiding stampeders for a few years. A bond thrusts
them together, but their pasts threaten to tear them apart—if they can
even survive the hardships and death on the trail to the land of gold.
IN THE LAND OF GOLD follows the voyage of stampeders risking their
lives during the 1897 Klondike Gold Rush.
