The Rush by Beth Lewis
5.0
adventurous informative mysterious

Filled with adventure, mystery and peril, The Rush is the story of three women during the Klondike Gold Rush. Brought together by the death of one woman they all knew in different ways, this is a story that tells of how things were for women.

Fantastic historical fiction that interweaves real events (albeit with a creative license on timeline) with characters inspired by people who lived it. It pulled me in from the very start and I raced through it. Unique and wonderfully written, it held me in its thrall throughout.
