William Hamilton Canaway, known as W.H. Canaway, also known as Bill Canaway, was the author of novels that combined adventure with natural history and a love of the outdoors.
What a freaking awesome story! You have most of the deadly sins, morality, and action in one story. And all to save a lil boy that has suffered heartache and tribulations. If I had the math wits Miller has in a character to pull off a heist, I would've done the same thing for my kid. I didn't know who the antagonist were going to be, but when the treachery began, the drama and action made the story just as exciting and mysterious. All the time after the last show, I'm thinking "Where is the gold!? ". Everything about this story was on point, and it was definitely a full length novel with all the fixings of a world wind read. Everybody got their share, some more than others in the long run.
