Fortymile, the second novel in the Life on the Alaska Frontier series is coming this Christmas!
A barrel-chested miner shoved his way in front of them, dislodging her bag from her hand and nearly knock- ing her to the deck.
Retribution was swift. Her companion grabbed the bearded man by his hair, and in one swift move, yanked him backwards to the deck, nearly winding him. Before he could try to get up, a boot was firmly placed across his throat, the pressure firm enough to hold him.
"I think you owe the lady an apology."
Scene from FortymileApr 21, 2013
“A few more feet and the gun would be his. He stopped and looked up, first towards the gun, then back towards the fire—then he saw it. No, he saw them. Spirit-like shadows moving just beyond the fire. He stared to see what they were but the more he tried to look past the fire, the less he could see. There was nothing to do but get the gun. Thomas lunged the last few feet, grabbed the .45-70 and rolled to a sitting position, his back against the small spruce. He hadn’t reloaded after the shot at the moose; racking the lever action he pointed past the fire and pulled the trigger only to be rewarded with a sickening click as the firing pin struck empty space. The gun was empty. Amateur! he thought as he fumbled in his pocket for cartridges.”

On August 14, 1901, the *S.S. Islander* departed Skagway for Seattle, carrying nearly 200 crew and passengers. Many of the passengers were successful miners returning from the Klondike with their horde of gold. Later that night, the Islander struck a rock near the southern tip of Douglas Island and sank within twenty minutes---forty lives were lost.

Sulphide Gulch Quotes

Heartbreak Cabin Quotes
"This story has a solid plot and flows smoothly from the previous novel. The scenes are easily believable, and the author is great at weaving facts and interesting details into the story. I found it hard to put this series down from start to finish. Excellent story telling."
"This is a great read, recommended to anyone who would love to read a clean wholesome book. I could read the series again and still enjoy."
Fortymile Quotes
"This book is a step back in time to the real days of Alaska. It is well written and one feels ad if they are a part of the story. I could see the country in my mind and feel the emotions in my heart."
"This is a well written book. I enjoyed reading it. So much so that I couldn't put it down once I started it. It would be nice to see another book or two in this series."
"The book gave me an appreciation of the struggles faced by the early Alaskan pioneers and miners. This book was a good addition to G.E. Sherman's first book."
