"Rebecca, you must keep what I'm about to tell you very quiet. Do not breathe a word of it to anyone. Promise me... If anything happens to me, you get in touch with Sheriff Tom Ackerman of Virginia City and start an investigation. " When her dad and brother go missing, Los Angeles beauty Rebecca Simmons quits her job and travels to Nevada to search out Sheriff Tom Ackerman. From the moment she arrives in town, she becomes the target of a man determined to get what he wants at any cost. Rebecca arrives at her dad's cabin with the sheriff to find both her dad's and her brother's trucks with slashed tires, shattered glass, and riddled with bullet holes. Someone is serious about what they want from her dad, but what is it? As Rebecca unravels the mystery, she also discovers her growing attraction to the sheriff. Danger, mystery, romance, and a one-hundred-year-old ghost are just the beginning of what Rebecca finds in Patricia Redican's The Gold Nugget. Based in the quaint, historical town of Virginia City, Nevada, The Gold Nugget takes off with twists and turns that will keep readers guessing from cover to cover.

The late 1920' and early 1930's was the time of the Great Depression. Little or no work was available so people could earn money for survival. All mountain families grew vegetables, kept a milk cow and raised some hogs. Those who owned their mountain farms lived well by working hard and managing well. They cut timber to sell and earn a little money necessary for clothing and other things they couldn't grow. It was widely known that gold had been found in the mountains. Men would put in endless hours panning for gold in the small mountain streams. Now and then, someone would find a gold nugget. Most of the time, it would be the size of a pea or maybe the size of a marble. Gold was a symbol of wealth. When someone found a nugget and word got around, everyone would be talking about Uncle Ben striking it rich. However, I never knew of anyone selling his gold for a pile of money. One day, I realized that gold nuggets were not only present in these mountains, but that there were golden nuggets in the experiences of my life in these mountains. It is with great joy that I share these stories with anyone who cares to read them. Fred Lunsford

Now, on with the story, my good, good friends!

In this book, my dad John, humbly shares a glimpse into his spiritual evolution. His story consists of many material highs and lows, culminating in his roots growing ever stronger in spiritual understanding and God consciousness. His lifetime has consisted of great prosperity in his career through hard work and following his heart. He has also encountered many difficulties including the death of his daughter (my sister), and only a couple years later, the death of his wife (my mom). With loss we reach a fork in the road. Will this material suffering lead us to great lamentation, the seeking of sense enjoyment as distraction, or the ultimate path of transcendental understanding? With his spiritual strength, dad has continually chosen the path of loving servitude aided by deepening his connection to his true soul and its source. I attribute my spiritual path to my father’s influence and hope his story and spiritual maxims in this book can do the same for the reader.
