Rivers Of Gold (2002) - Plot & Excerpts

Miranda Colton survived the wrecking of a boat in October, 1898, in the Yukon. When she awoke she was being nursed back to health by a native woman named Nellie. The English gentleman who owned the cabin was Teddy Davenport, a botanist. It was months before Miranda could tell family and friends of her health and whereabouts since communications and transportation were quite primitive. While she was recuperating the mounties had contacted the family of another traveler,Grace, reporting her missing and dead. As a consequence, her husband had no hope for his life and he went to the Yukon to bring home his sister Miranda.Karen, Grace and Leah were actually surviving in a tent with Grace ready to give birth any moment. She was unaware of the notice sent to her family by the mounties. We are accustomed to instant communications today with email and telephones. It must have been very frustrating to people not knowing about loved ones and not having any way to find out anytime soon. Teddy found himself changing as he got to know Miranda and he also discovered that he did not want to lose her when she got well enough to travel. Before that time he wanted only to work on his book about plants of the Yukon. This sensation of concern and caring for another gave him a very different way of looking at life. His vast resources and connections came in handy when the search was made for Grace. When Leah's brother was accused of murder it was imperative that the guilty party be found which meant all the friends searching and praying. He was accused because of what a few saw and didn't see. Quick judgement was made and only his friends believed him. The decision to live in the Yukon came with a price. Sometimes people did not realize the price until difficulties began happening

Treasures of the North, Ashes and Ice, and Rivers of Gold make up the adventurous Yukon Quest series by Tracie Peterson. Set amidst the rugged frontier of Alaska, I think this series was a little different than anything I’ve ever read. Goldfields, malicious suitors, threatening snow storms, and strong heroes make up these exploratory stories about three brave young woman, daring to struggle on through every obstacle Alaska (and others things!) throw in their way. Suspenseful and interesting, the Yukon Quest series makes for a favorite by Tracie Peterson.

What do You think about Rivers Of Gold (2002)?

The weary group minus Miranda and Crispin have set up their tent by the river near Dawson. When arriving they didn't have enough funds for a cabin or a claim as hoped. Grace has her baby, a boy, Andrew or Andy. She is left in dawson as the others go share a claim and cabin with Adrik's friend, Gump. They come back later to get Grace when she is recovered and the baby is stronger and the weather more mild. There is a misunderstanding in the telegraph that is sent about the accident on the lake...
