About this ebook

Unsolved deaths. Untold treasure. Can she uncover the secret of her inheritance before dark forces claim another victim?

Graysie Castellanos is ready to take her final bow. When the traveling singer inherits a rundown mine, she thinks it’s her golden opportunity to provide her adopted daughter with a happy childhood and a prosperous future. But their bright new beginning crumbles underfoot when the townsfolk of the Sierra Nevada mining town start dropping dead of mysterious causes.

If Nathan Russell had listened to his gut, he’d have cleared out of Grass Valley before the first corpse turned cold. But the Aussie-born adventurer refuses to abandon the gorgeous singer and her young child to their doom. And when his old rival arrives in town looking to stir up trouble, he only gets pulled deeper into the mystery of the dark forces taking control.

With no choice but to press forward, Graysie and Nathan must solve the riddle of the deaths before the shadowy culprit adds their names to the tombstone.

Ratings and reviews

Some awkward sections, trying to tie in backstories and some downright fantastical aspects harm this story. You cannot make up a 3 hour head start on a train, nor fit a folded gown from 1868 into a package small enough to fit inside a top hat. Just 2 of the discrepancies I noted.

The writer is so exceptional. She kept the many characters in sequence according to the narrative. I always felt like I was there. Excellent story line.
