In the isolated coal mining town of Sulphur Creek in the late 1800s, young Sammy Murphy's world is a blend of shadowy tunnels and unspoken secrets. Born into solitude and pushed into reclusion, Sammy's quiet life starkly contrasts with the booming industry that surrounds him. But as he searches for connection in an era of ruthless expansion, he finds himself at odds with forces far greater than he imagined.
Enter Barry Bacon, an ambitious industrialist who fancies himself a peer to magnates like Andrew Carnegie. Driven by unbridled ambition, Bacon's dreams stretch far beyond the soot-covered rooftops of Sulphur Creek. But as the weight of his empire bears down, his unchecked arrogance threatens to unravel everything he's built.As Sammy faces an unexpected awakening brought forth by a fleeting love, and Bacon's empire teeters on the brink of collapse, both men must face truths that transcend time--true love extends beyond mere attraction and real power is more than forceful arrogance.Set against the raw, unforgiving landscape of America's industrial ascent, Ghost Town is a gripping novel of ambition, isolation, and the pursuit of connection. With richly drawn characters and a hauntingly relevant message, it echoes through history, exploring what it truly means to lead, to love, and to belong.Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
