Book excerpt: Gold is a fever. Will it lead her to love ... or death? A suspenseful romance set on the turbulent goldfields of 1870s Australia, for readers of The Postmistress and The Woman in the Green Dress. 'There are people in this town with the gleam of gold in their eyes and cold steel in their hearts.' 1873. Eliza Penrose arrives in the gold mining town of Maiden's Creek in search of her brother, planning to make a new life for herself. Instead she finds a tragic mystery - and hints of betrayals by those closest to her. Mining engineer Alec McLeod left Scotland to escape the memory of his dead wife and child. Despite the best efforts of the eligible ladies of Maiden's Creek, Alec is determined never to give his heart again. As lies and deceit threaten Eliza's life, Alec steps in - although he has problems of his own, as he risks his livelihood and those he holds dear to oppose the dangerous work practices at the Maiden's Creek Mine. When disaster draws the pieces of the puzzle together, Eliza and Alec must save each other - but is it too late? 'Suspenseful and compulsive reading, The Goldminer's Sister doesn't disappoint' - Darry Fraser, author of The Good Woman of Renmark

Book excerpt: Jim Sandy was sitting in an armchair in the sitting-room of his fathers house in Cockermouth, and in his hands was a printed paper, headed: ANALYSIS of Boring number 5, Carrock Fell. Date of analysis: 4th March 1969. Sitting in the other armchair in the room, facing him on the other side of the hearth, was his father, Arthur Sandy, the manager of the Leadthwaite Mine, while his wife, Susan, and Jackie Sandy, his fathers wife, were sitting on the sofa between the two armchairs. I see weve got gold included in this list of the elements present in the sample, said Jim as his eye ran down a long list of chemical elements on the left-hand side of the piece of paper in his hands. The paper was sub-titled: Elements present in sample: Average composition of rocks. There was also a second column headed: per centage weight. Yes, said his father. And I think, if I remember rightly, that the figure quoted there in that list indicates that gold is present in the sample in a proportion which is really not too bad, all things considered. Gosh! said Susan. So does that mean that you could at last be thinking of starting to mine gold at Carrock soon? Yes, I would say that it really does mean that! said Mr. Sandy. Were hoping to give it a go soon, arent we, Jackie, darling - if we can get the final permission we need before we can start mining operations?
