About this book
Stolen gold passes through a hidden furnace in the opening of Frank Lewis Nason’s Colorado mining novel. Luna, a mill foreman, confronts Pierre over his share of the proceeds, while Pierre warns that the watchful older man they discuss sees more than Luna imagines. Their uneasy bargain introduces a community in which money, suspicion and divided loyalties shape dealings around the Blue Goose.
Alongside the mining conflict runs a more personal story involving Firmstone and Élise. When she shows him a secluded garden beside a waterfall, he reflects on the danger she faces through her connection with the Blue Goose and its hostility toward the Rainbow Company. His concern for her future gives the industrial dispute an intimate scale. Readers drawn to fiction about mining communities will find both tense negotiations over gold and close attention to trust, social surroundings and the difficulty of offering help.
