The year is 1867 and the gold rush is at its peak in the mining town of Quartzville, deep in the mountains of Oregon's Santiam wilderness. Forty miles away, thirteen-year-old Levi Becker has been shouldering the weight of his father's absence on the family farm for months, when his mother has a debilitating wagon accident. Devastated, Levi reluctantly drags his little sister, May, with him to Quartzville, to find the man he believes abandoned them.
But when they arrive at the bustling boomtown, they discover they aren't the only ones looking for their father. And a ruthless murderer is determined to use Levi's sister as bait to get what he wants. With the help of a mountain woman who's been seeking her own fortune, Levi sets out to rescue his kidnapped sister and find his father before somebody ends up dead.
Becker's Trail takes you into the heart of a gold-mining town's short-lived glory and a boy's harrowing struggle to reunite his family and prove his courage in the American West.
