Bound for Gold: A Peter Fallon Novel of the California Gold Rush by William Martin


Known for adventures that sweep from the present to the past and back, New York Times bestselling author William Martin returns with Boston rare-book dealer Peter Fallon and his girlfriend, Evangeline Carrington. They are headed for San Francisco, where their search for a lost journal will take them into one of the defining events of American history, the California Gold Rush.


The journal follows young James Spencer and his Irish friend Michael Flynn on a spectacular journey from staid Boston to lusty San Francisco, then up the Sacramento River to the Mother Lode. As they search for a mythical "lost river of gold," they confront vengeance, greed, and racism; they find romance; and they live through the birth pangs of one of America's grandest cities.


In the present, Peter Fallon's son asks his father to appraise the rare books in the Spencer estate and to help reconstruct Spencer's seven-part journal, which has been stolen from the California Historical Society. Peter and Evangeline head for modern San Francisco and quickly discover that there's something much bigger and more dangerous going on, and Peter's son is in the middle of it. Turns out, that lost river of gold may be more than a myth.


Past and present intertwine as two stories of the eternal struggle for power and wealth become one.
