At the Mountain's Edge
At the Mountain's Edge | Genevieve Graham
6 posts | 3 read | 4 to read
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 Lizas family nears the mountains 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 Klondikes gold, At the Mountains 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.

Slight detour into a frothy Klondike romance before picking up anything else.

I enjoyed this. The disasters in the book were the best parts for me. I enjoy reading books set near me, so reading about the Frank Slide was fun. The romance was not overdone, which was good for me (not always a romance fan). I also enjoyed the author‘s note at the end. I could tell how passionate she is about Canadian historical fiction and the research she did
