When teenagers Beth and Sam Bolton are orphaned, their baby sister is taken into a new home, so they decide to set sail for a new life too ... in America. On board the steamer to New York, Beth and Sam meet charismatic gambler Theo, and quick-witted Londoner Jack, and the four band together to seek their fortunes.

Beth has always dreamed of playing her fiddle to large audiences ... and finds herself doing so in the saloons, where she is a huge success and lovingly nicknamed Gypsy by her fans. But the foursome fall foul of local gangsters and flee to Canada, as word gets out that gold has been found in the Klondike. They embark on a dangerous and epic journey to reach the Yukon valley, trailing across snowy mountains and treacherous rapids. Who will break first? Theo, the handsome-yet-greedy bounder? Dreamy Sam, so easily influenced by money? Practical Jack, a man devoted to his friends? Or Beth, the woman with the gypsy in her soul, who cares more for music than gold?

Full of love, passion and heartbreak (Best)

Storytelling at its very best (Daily Mail)
From the Back Cover:

Tragedy sent her on a
journey far from home . . .



Fifteen-year-old Beth's life is shattered when she and her brother Sam are orphaned. Believing that only in America can they make a fresh start, brother and sister leave Liverpool and embark on the greatest adventure of their lives.



In New York, Beth's talent with the fiddle earns her the friendship of chancers and other rogues who've come to make their fortunes. She is nicknamed Gypsy and befriends the charismatic gambler Theo and sharp-witted Londoner Jack. Dodging trouble across America, Beth and her new friends join the rush for the Klondike river in search of gold.



How far must Beth go to find happiness? And will her travels lead this gypsy to a place she can ever call home?
