What’s this?
When hard-driving Chicago attorney Rachel Winston is pursued by an organized crime family, she never imagines the outcome of awakening in the raucous gold mining town of Idaho City in 1864, where those with sympathies for each side of the Civil War explode into violence.
Here and now, she must learn not only to survive but to face the trauma of her past by accepting the boundless love of a big-hearted pioneer clan, as well as Ethan and Rose Stonehill, a wounded Union cavalry officer and his young daughter striving to forge a new life on the American frontier.
Christine Echeverria Bender’s searches for the secrets of past eras and cultures have enticed her into the ancient archives of libraries and museums, within the recesses of prehistoric caves, sailing aboard historic tall ships, joining a team from the Smithsonian Institute on an archeological dig at a 15th century Basque whaling site in remote Canada, and crossing the turbulent Snake River on horseback. Because of these and other endeavors she was dubbed the “female Indiana Jones” by Women’s Adventure Magazine. Such first-hand experiences bring distinctive vibrance and authenticity to Christine’s writing.
