Sinopsis

âÇÖThere are people in this town with the gleam of gold in their eyes and cold steel in their hearts.âÇÖáDrawn by her brotherâÇÖs promise of a fresh start in Australia, Eliza Penrose journeys from England to the gold-mining town of MaidenâÇÖs Creek, only to arrive in the shadow of tragedy.áFinding herself alone and friendless in a town where answers about her brotherâÇÖs fate remain frustratingly elusive, Eliza seizes an unexpected chance to establish herself as the settlementâÇÖs schoolteacher.áAmong the townspeople she encounters is Alec McLeod, the mineâÇÖs engineer and her brotherâÇÖs friend, who still carries the memory and guilt of his wifeâÇÖs death. Though heâÇÖs rebuffed the attention of every eligible woman in town, Alec finds himself unexpectedly drawn to Eliza-an attraction complicated by a promise he made to her brother.áWhile Alec struggles between his growing feelings for Eliza and his obligations to the mine and its men, Eliza delves into the mystery surrounding her brotherâÇÖs death. As secrets, lies, and betrayals circle around them, both Alec and Eliza are drawn deeper into the townâÇÖs web of secrets.áWhen disaster strikes the mine, the truths begins to surface. The revelations come at a heavy price, and Eliza and Alec risk losing everything they have fought for, including their lives.áWith time running out and stakes rising, will their newfound bond be enough to overcome the forces threatening to tear them apart?á'Meticulously researched, Alison imbues this tale with a sense of era and place. I was transported to late nineteenth century rural Victoria... Alison Stuart has struck gold witháThe GoldminerâÇÖs Sister. History, mystery and romance. She really has hit her stride as a fabulous storyteller and historical novelist.' (Better Reading)á
