• Pursuing Gold by Cynthia Simmons

My review;

"Pursuing Gold" by author Cynthia L. Simmons is a great historical novel. Peter Chandler has just started running a bank during the Civil War that is in trouble. Mary Beth Roper is her partner's daughter and she is helping him because her father is unable to. They are really trying hard to save the bank. The issues are worse every moment, then fake money shows up and they have Peter's signature on them , but he never even signed them. What is going to happen to their bank as well as them?  Are they doing the right thing? Will they maybe have a future? I give this book a 4/5. I was given this book by Litfuse Publicity Group and all opinions are mine.
