Anyway, if you’ve read Sweet Glory (Book 1 of Glory: A Civil War Series) and Train to Glory (Book 2 of Glory: A Civil War Series), then you already know that Gold, Guts and Glory chronicles the continuing saga of Jana Brady (alias Cavalryman Johnnie Brodie of the real Tenth New York Volunteer Cavalry Regiment) and her soldier-sweetheart Keeley Cassidy. Rather than my droning on about their latest escapades, I’ll let Jana’s contemporary fill in some of those details in the following video:
Continuing where Jana’s avatar leaves off. . .
. . .Jana and Keeley discover that the train wreck reveals a more sinister plot behind the stolen payroll than mere petty thievery. They race against two Rebel train-wreck survivors, a bankrupt politician and his goons, and members of a powerful organization who aim to amass wealth to incite a second rebellion and perpetuate slavery. With help from Jana and Keeley’s coonhound, Tracker, and cavalry comrades, Leanne and Charlie Watson, they sniff out the trail of the federal treasury and confront the thieves in a final showdown. Can Jana, Keeley, and friends outwit their foes to recoup the money?
The Sapling Idea that Bloomed into Gold, Guts and Glory Happened Eighty-Percent of the Way Into the Writing of Train to Glory, as With This Moment:
Jana didn’t confide in Mr. Tanner that her only appeal in working for the Pinkerton Agency would be if she and Keeley didn’t rekindle their love. Then, she’d need something exhilaratingly adventurous to get her through her grief. If, however, they did rekindle their love, and he found farming unappealing, maybe he’d consider becoming a detective. She smiled at the thought of them becoming the Pinkerton Agency’s first husband-wife team.
And the Rest is History!
I hope you find Gold, Guts and Glory (Book 3 of Glory: A Civil War Series) an entertaining story filled with adventure, romance, and suspense interwoven with a sweeping portrayal of post-Civil War times and women’s expanding roles within it.
Happy Reading & Warm Regards,
Lisa Y. Potocar
