In the aftermath of the 1889 fire that ravaged Spokane Falls, three opportunists—a banker, a conman, and a woman with a unique gift—find their lives intertwined. Barton Heydale, the bank manager, sees the disaster as a chance to reclaim his power and purpose, as citizens rush to cash insurance policies and secure loans. Quake Auchenbaucher, a seasoned conman investigating the fire's cause, must navigate the complexities of a changing legal landscape as Washington Territory seeks statehood. Meanwhile, Roslyn Beck, a woman gifted with foresight, struggles with her abilities and the allure of both men who are drawn to her. As their lives intersect, each character grapples with their desires for power and control, leading to ruin, heartbreak, and ultimately, redemption. The narrative explores themes of greed and misogyny in the American West, crafting a captivating tale about the search for purpose amid chaos and injustice. With a blend of dark whimsy and originality, the story reveals the lengths to which individuals will go to seize opportunity in a world turned upside down.
