Attorney Caleb Coulter has been missing for three months, which is long enough to concern his sister Camriann, who travels to San Francisco during the turn of the 20th-century to find him. Unprepared for the city's rampant corruption and violence, she fortunately meets Patrick Murdock, whom Caleb had successfully defended against a false murder charge. Together, they work to discover Caleb's whereabouts. Peterson (Out of the Ashes) launches the first volume in a new historical series that offers both an action-packed romantic adventure and a spiritual journey as the protagonists seek answers to their questions. VERDICT Bound to attract fans of the author's "Heart of the Frontier" series and readers desiring an uplifting, scripture-based novel in which faith and prayer are key elements in the development of both the plot and the characters.
