At the close of the 19th century, the gold rush is in full swing. A determined young man has left Seattle behind to head north: With the lure of Alaska gold burning bright in his eyes, Thomas Thornton set out on a voyage to find fame and fortune. He left behind all that he had, with a promise to his girl he would return. Thomas soon learned that Alaska had other ideas about his future.
