Mary's escapades will threaten her father's work among the Feather River tribes, compromise her faith and family, and ultimately imperil not only her life, but the lives of her friends. But when Mary finally comes face to face with her shortcomings, evil plans beyond her control are already in motion. Trapped and alone, Mary must confront the darkness within herself. Only then will she be ready for the greatest test of her life, with the lives of others hanging in the balance. Above the Midas Touch is the second book in the Discovery historical fiction series, which follows the lives and adventures of young people over several generations. Like Mary, they struggle to make their way in a growing and changing 19th century America and to triumph amid the century-long spiritual conflicts that have shaped our nation, past and present.

Review:
So many of the history texts traditionally used in schools have failed to paint an accurate picture of how exciting the past was and how important it is to us today. And, of course, many times they gloss over or simply leave out details of how people's relationships to God have shaped history. Reconciliation Press is providing a welcome breath of fresh air! -- Whitney Von Lake Hopler, Christian Writer and Editor
