About This Book

A steady, good-humored member of the Allinson family becomes entangled in a remote mining settlement where hazardous travel, claim-jumpers, and internal treachery threaten both men and operations. The plot traces river journeys and canoe rescues, amateur prospecting, the discovery and defense of a silver lode, and the raising of rescue parties and alliances amid harsh weather and rugged terrain. Personal loyalties and a growing romantic encouragement influence decisions as rivalries escalate into open confrontation over claims. Revelations about a locality called Rain Bluff alter loyalties and lead to a final settlement that vindicates family honor and secures the mine.
