From the acclaimed international bestselling author of The House of the Spirits and Paula comes this dazzling new historical novel, her most ambitious work of fiction yet – a sweeping portrait of an unconventional woman carving her own destiny in an era marked by violence, passion, and adventure. An orphan raised in Valparaiso, Chile, by a Victorian spinster and her rigid brother, young, vivacious Eliza Sommers follows her lover to California during the Gold Rush of 1849 – a danger–filled quest that will become a momentous journey of transformation from innocence to independence.
