description: Maxwell Houghton, son of a wealthy Bostonian banker, dreads carrying on in his fatherâ€™s footsteps and becoming a strait-laced society gentleman. A late-night gathering in a local tavern in the autumn of 1869 forever changes the course of his life. Falsely accused of murder, he must track down the real killer to prove his innocence. Maxwell soon realizes he has been dragged into a conspiracy from his eccentric grandfatherâ€™s past. The elusive ship that haunts the horizon as he journeys to San Francisco reveals that someone aboard it is guiding Maxwellâ€™s fate, and nothing about his predicament has been left to chance. From the high seas to the back streets of Rio, from a deserted tropical island to the majestic hills of northern California, the mysterious outlaw he seeks holds all the answersâ€”as well as a hidden agenda of his own.
