From bestselling author Genevieve Graham comes a sweeping
new historical novel of love, tragedy, and redemption set
during the height of the Klondike Gold Rush.
In 1897, the discovery of gold in the desolate reaches of
the Yukon has the world abuzz with excitement, and thousands
of prospectors swarm to the north seeking riches the likes
of which have never been seen before.
For Liza Peterson and her family, the gold rush is a chance
for them to make a fortune by moving their general store
business from Vancouver to Dawson City, the only established
town in the Yukon. For Constable Ben Turner, a recent
recruit of the North-West Mounted Police, upholding the law
in a place overrun with guns, liquor, prostitutes, and
thieves is an opportunity to escape a dark past and become
the man of integrity he has always wanted to be. But the
long, difficult journey over icy mountain passes and
whitewater rapids is much more treacherous than Liza or Ben
imagined, and neither is completely prepared for the
forbidding north.
As Liza’s family nears the mountain’s peak, a catastrophe
strikes with fatal consequences, and not even the NWMP can
help. Alone and desperate, Liza finally reaches Dawson City,
only to find herself in a different kind of peril.
Meanwhile, Ben, wracked with guilt over the accident on the
trail, sees the chance to make things right. But just as
love begins to grow, new dangers arise, threatening to
separate the couple forever.
Inspired by history as rich as the Klondike’s gold, At
the Mountain’s Edge is an epic tale of romance and
adventure about two people who must let go of the past not
only to be together, but also to survive.
