It started with a murder. And an odd one. The victim was killed with a shotgun on a steamship, and his body was dumped overboard. In a cork life vest. With a note in code to the United States Marshal in Juneau. It’s 1910, and Alaska’s wealth is threatened when President Taft takes back all coal lands. Without coal, there will be no gold mining. Steve Levi has mixed fact with fiction for a wild ride in the North with anarchists, socialists, coal, gold, murder, and the opportunity for United States Marshal Gordon Whitford to turn the tables on a cabal of East Coast coal barons.

Paganina nasce negli anni Trenta, da un padre così ateo che voleva chiamarla Ateina (ma poi non se l'era sentita). Paganina ha un carattere forte e indipendente, e una inclinazione per l'eroismo e gli eroi. Così quando incontra Guglielmo, che è stato partigiano con suo fratello Spartaco e ha fatto saltare da solo un camion di tedeschi, sa che è lui l'eroe che vuole al suo fianco. Le basta presentarsi, "Sono Paganina", per dare inizio a un amore che attraverserà tutta la vita. Una vita che sarà percorsa da altre grandi passioni, su tutte quella della politica.
