ABOUT THE BOOK

Irish immigrant Seamus Hanley is a lost soul, haunted by his past as a U.S. Army deserter and living alone in the wilderness of the Rocky Mountains in 1849. But after witnessing a deadly stage coach crash, he finds purpose in the scattered wreckage -- a letter with a picture of a beautiful and captivating woman named Ashlyn living in San Francisco at the height of the Gold Rush. Moved by her written plea for help, he abandons all and sets out on an epic journey across the wild and picturesque American frontier. While being pursued by those who want to hang him, Seamus encounters fascinating characters including a young Pauite Indian who makes the ultimate sacrifice in helping Seamus to cross the snowy Yosemite Valley. Battered but changed for the better, Seamus reaches San Francisco on Christmas Eve as the city burns in the tragic fire of 1849. But there is little time for rest, as an even greater, more harrowing adventure involving Ashlyn is about to begin.

My thoughts:  This is the second book in a series.  I read the first and so was very eager to start this one and see what happened to Seamus when he disappeared from the first book.  Definitely not disappointing!  I fell in love with Seamus all over again as well as his picture and then with the actual girl Ashlyn when we met her.  You will love the ups and downs and twists and turns in this book.  The feisty uncle even makes another appearance in this book(yes the uncle we thought was gone and dead by now).  You definitely do not want to miss reading this book!
