She enters a rough-and-tumble world whose newly arrived inhabitants are driven mad by gold fever. With the help of her good friend and savior, the Chinese doctor Tao Chi'en, Eliza moves freely in a society of single men and prostitutes, creating an unconventional but independent life for herself. The young Chilean's search for her elusive lover gradually turns into another kind of journey, and by the time she finally hears news of him, Eliza must decide who her true love really is.</p> 3471915 1999 Daughter of Fortune: A Novel (P.S.) total:10862|5:2384|4:4612|3:3126|2:615|1:125| 10862 41101 13579 931 2 5 true true Wed Jan 23 18:38:40 -0800 2008 Sat Oct 20 16:47:19 -0700 2007 Wed Jan 23 18:38:26 -0800 2008 more...]]> 4 5 false false Mon Oct 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Tue May 29 23:54:52 -0700 2007 Tue Mar 18 19:29:22 -0700 2008 Daughter of Fortune several years ago but for some reason put it aside and never finished it.
