The golden nineties

In this companion novel to SUMMER OF LOVE, another time traveler from the far future is compelled to return to San Francisco in 1895 to safeguard a Chinese girl sold into slavery. The time traveler herself becomes trapped in the past and switches her identity with the girl she is meant to protect with devastating consequences. Another analysis of American society of the time, THE GOLDEN NINETIES explores the roles of women during the fin de siecle period and showcases the delights of San Francisco before the great earthquake and fire of 1906 destroyed the city.
