GOING FOR THE GOLD
GOING FOR THE GOLD is a reissued series of MMF westerns. I wrote them in 2010-2011 for Siren Publishing as Karen Mercury (real name!) and am re-releasing them now. WORKING THE LODE is the first in the series, a tale of three utterly different people who form a solid bond working against a common enemy.
Going to
California. It's three thousand miles nearer to hell.Mountain man Cormack
Bowmaker meets up with Zelnora Sparks on the eve of California's great rush-the
discovery of gold. Zelnora is fleeing from her mentor, the mighty businessman
Brannagh. They are being shadowed by the most scandalous Spanish bandit in the
frontier. Joaquin Valenzuela wants to rob them of their gold, but soon
discovers a desire for much more.
Californians call for the
pickled head of Valenzuela in a jar, but his passion for the two Americans
overpowers his zeal for mayhem. They band together in their quest for riches,
love, and the good life.
Bowmaker is a sharpshooter,
his aim true. Valenzuela will slit the throat of anyone who wanders by. Zelnora
knows where to find the gold. And Brannagh will do everything it takes to stop
them.
They are about
to discover the frontier—within themselves.
