About this ebook
London – 1850 – Leaving an established life behind her, Margaret Manson packs up her family to follow her husband halfway around the world to an uncertain future in the Hudson's Bay Company colony of Fort Victoria.
During the long voyage she becomes romantically involved with the enigmatic ship's captain, arriving at Fort Victoria with some serious personal problems and many questions about her future. One problem is solved but another appears as she learns that her husband was lost at sea during his voyage, taking all their savings with him. Determined to succeed, she defies the accepted norms of the day, learning new tricks and skills to survive. Working with the captain and some local Indians, she and her sons establish a foothold in the new territory.
Rumours of Spanish gold fire up her imagination, fuelled by some gold coins found with her husband's recovered belongings. Again, defying 'accepted rules of society' she forms an alliance with a local Indian and an unsavoury prospector to strike out into the rugged rain forests of south-western British Columbia. This plunges her further into perilous adventures to solve a Spanish mystery from a previous century on Vancouver Island's rugged West Coast.
