Gentry and her siblings struggle to survive after their father abandons them for the gold rush. When bizarre natural disasters strike, Gentry discovers a world of untamed magic. Desperate, she accepts aid from the enigmatic Winn, who can control the magic by feeding it gold—the very thing Gentry's father covets. As the earth's unrest intensifies, Gentry faces a terrible choice: marry a wealthy man she doesn't love, or trust Winn's unpredictable power to save her family.
