Sometimes you bring your own gold when you travel to the gold rush. Marcus Gale wanted only to get out of New York. Now he's bound to California and the Land of Gold. He means to get there even if it means shoveling coal all the way. He's taken a job as stoker on a steamship, without knowing what a stoker does. He finds himself caught up in a conspiracy to take over the ship, robbery, mayhem, and a pirate attack. Marcus decides his main goal is to get to California alive. He doesn't know he's destined to carry gold. Alouette Thorndyke is also aboard the ship. She's beautiful and rich, or claims she is. Marcus doesn't realize she's about to get him involved with swindling, chaos and mutiny. Nor that she is about to save his life. Marcus dreams of getting rich in California, but the journey is long from Inferno to Paradise.Now read the book and travel to a time past, which haunts us yet today.
