The Grant Chronicles: Book Three
Yukon Territory, 1898.
At the height of the Klondike Gold Rush, Dawson has become the largest settlement north of San Francisco. A booming frontier city of hotels and crowded saloons, muddy streets and frozen rivers, where fortunes are made overnight. The promise of gold has drawn people from every corner of the world.
Newly promoted to Corporal, Stephen Grant of the North-West Mounted Police arrives at his new posting expecting little more than another demanding winter on Canada's northern frontier. Instead, a routine investigation into the death of an unknown miner draws him into a world of powerful businessmen, ambitious entrepreneurs, seasoned freighters and dangerous men who all appear to be guarding the same secret.
As winter tightens its grip on the Yukon, every answer uncovers another question and every trail disappears deeper into the wilderness. Each step forward brings Grant closer to a truth that some will do almost anything to keep quiet.
Inspired by real events during the Klondike Gold Rush, The Freeze Holds Fast combines historical detail with an unforgettable cast of characters to bring one of the greatest gold rushes vividly to life. From the bustling streets of Dawson City to remote wilderness trails, it is a story of ambition, loyalty, corruption and survival, where fortunes are won and lost, duty is tested, and justice is rarely simple.
Perfect for readers who enjoy immersive historical fiction, richly authentic settings, and compelling frontier mysteries, The Freeze Holds Fast continues Stephen Grant's journey through the people, places and defining events of the Klondike Gold Rush.
