More about the book

From Alaska's boozing, brawling boomtowns to the graft-ridden pipeline and lawless frontier, the Cole dynasty was spawned from blood and money, cursed by the Midas touch... Jeremiah, the patriarch, staked his claim to an empire torn from the wilderness and ruled it with arrogant pride. Josh, his son the senator gave up the family empire to follow a political dream. Kelly ColeO'Keefe, fiery granddaughter, new mistress to the passionate family greed, suddenly ruled the Cole empire. Will, mercenary grandson, the dethroned heir, used his genius for oil and his appetite for women to fulfill a selfish need. Chris O'Keefe, the outsider, fell victim to love and treachery in this land of searing cold, where black gold gushed in waves in violence.
