About this listen
Ice and Gold: Book I - In times of economic hardship, peoples of any nation will immigrate to better their lot in life. But nothing in history has ever matched the number and scope of those who stepped into the unknown by leaving everything behind in the hopes of ‘striking it rich’ once gold was discovered in the Klondike region of the Yukon Territory in western Canada.
‘Gold fever’ and everything that connotation suggests was sparked across the entire world, causing literally tens of thousands to leave their homes, jobs, and loved ones behind to journey into the untamed wilderness of the north. They came from virtually every continent; some for the sheer exciting adventure of it, others as a last-ditch effort to win fame and fortune.
This is fictitious story, inspired by actual characters and events that took place during this unprecedented period of struggle, greed, entrepreneurship, and adventure, where relationships were built and shattered by the very nature of the human species. The series is an odyssey about the change humans will make in their character when they are isolated from civilization's constraints. Set within true events that took place in the wilderness of the Yukon beginning in 1896, it explores how the human condition is affected by compulsion and greed when left unchecked by what most consider normal restraint.
We follow the three main characters as they make their way to the new boom town of Dawson City, where their lives will be intertwined for all time, and watch as their relationships and personalities are changed forever by the fever, the gold, and each other. Come with us and be drawn in by the vibrant dialect of the times, as you are immersed in a wonderous period that will never be repeated.

Union soldier John Chenneville suffered a traumatic head wound in battle. His recovery took the better part of a year as he struggled to regain his senses and mobility. By the time he returned home, the Civil War was over, but tragedy awaited. John’s beloved sister and her family had been brutally murdered. Their killer goes by many names. He fought for the North in the late unpleasantness, and wore a badge in the name of the law. But the man John knows as A. J. Dodd is little more than a rabid animal, slaughtering without reason or remorse, needing to be put down.

Poisonous snakes. Cholera-infected drinking water. Tumbleweed abrasion. Something called “toe-foot.” Even a trip to the outhouse. Yes, there are a million ways to die in the wild, wild West, and Albert plans to avoid them all. Some people think that makes him a coward. Albert calls it common sense.

Now, with his brilliant portrait of Luce, a young woman who inherits her murdered sister’s troubled twins, Frazier has created his most memorable heroine. Before the children, Luce was content with the reimbursements of the rich Appalachian landscape....

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

When mystery author D. B. Ziegler is late delivering her book, Abi Schore steps in to help. Surely she can give her favorite author moral support over the holiday break and get the manuscript to her boss at Tea & Sympathy Publishing in time for the new year. When Abi shows up on Ms. Ziegler’s doorstep bearing holiday treats, she’s met by the author’s handsome grandson Dov, who reveals a startling plot twist. His grandmother isn’t able to finish the book and Dov promised he’d complete it so fans won’t be disappointed—a task that’s harder than he ever imagined.

When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.
