This is the third and final book in the Gold Seer trilogy and was a good conclusion to this series. Once again there was less (almost no) adventure in this book; this book was more about the politics happening in San Francisco during the Gold Rush and Leah's effort to make things better and protect her friends.

This book ends up having a very Ocean's 11 type of vibe (as crazy as that sounds). Each of Leah's friends ends up coming up with part of a scheme to take down a powerful villain; the full scheme isn't revealed until the end of the book.

Carson's writing remains incredibly easy to read and engaging. I enjoyed seeing where all our characters ended up. The story is also tied up nicely.

Overall I was pleased with this conclusion to the Gold Seer trilogy. I am always impressed with how effortless Carson is to read and how quickly I am drawn into her stories. I had hoped for more adventure and less politics in this book; so I was a bit disappointed by that. However, I am happy where our characters ended up and am excited to see what Carson starts working on next.
