Summary

Can anyone ever go back home?

Gaudias Poulin is a pioneering Stampeder who has worked gold claims in Dawson all his adult life. Courage and insurmountable odds are all a normal part of life in the Yukon, a cruel country where every living thing wants to kill you.

Although he always believed that the next pan would bring a huge strike, his hard-earned sweat has only brought sore bones and a niggling illness. Time has left him sick and friendless. His heart is filled with bitterness and regret. Perhaps it’s time to go back home.

Nothing proves that I was there.

Gaudias is ordered to an asylum where he can get the medical care he needs. In this healing hospital, he searches for redemption after a lifetime of resentment and bitterness toward his brother, Romeo.

Can Gaudias’ twisted heart be softened by his roommate, an inexperienced youth who admires the gruff gold miner? Maybe this is as close to home as he will come. The Homecoming is the last book in the series A Klondike Gold Miner's Life.
