If only her father would come back home.
When he finally returns, she is even more devastated. He’s headed off to a new gold field up north in the Klamath wilderness. She’ll have to stay with her strict aunt and cruel cousins for another six months.
Desperate to escape this fate, Kit impulsively devises a plan that will change her life forever. And thrusts her into an adventure of a lifetime.
