Kit's Indian Summer is a story filled with excitement and danger during the turbulent times of the 1852 gold rush on the remote Klamath River in northern California. Kit, an impulsive eleven-year-old girl, finds her world turned upside down when her mother dies and she is sent to live with her aunt until her father returns from the Sacramento gold fields. She is devastated when he finally arrives and says she must stay another six months while he tries his luck up north. Desperate to escape this fate, Kit devises a plan that will change her life forever and thrusts her into an adventure of a lifetime. Kit's Indian Summer is historical fiction that looks at the Klamath gold rush through the eyes of a young girl as she watches the growing unrest between the natives who live there and the miners who arrive to claim the river's gold.
