Deadman’s Curse

Taylor unearths new testimony from a witness to Slumachs execution; a deathbed letter written by a man who claims to have found Slumachs gold sends Adam and Kru on a dangerous glacial trek in search of the fabled mother lode.

Reports of a jar of gold send Adam and Kru on the trail of missing prospector Volcanic Brown and his last known location; Don and Taylor investigate a strange marking on the prospector tools found in the Upper Pitt.

Kru finds a tape-recorded interview of a man who claims to have found Slumachs motherlode, and out on the trail, Adams old rival appears to be a step ahead in his search for the gold.

The continuation shows the team uncover evidence of a Spaniard galleon sunk in Bute Inlet, disprove Jack Mould as a con man, and another prospector falls to the curse of Slumach.

Its up to Adam to push forward and guide the team through the uncharted terrain of Corbold Canyon.

Adam, Kru and Tony follow the path of a failed 1982 Vancouver news team led by a Slumach gold hunter and mystic dowser.

The final words of a lifelong gold hunter send Adam, Kru and Daryl Friesen through an icy gauntlet high above Pitt Lake. On the Gadsby claim, Kru and Daryl move earth in search of Slumachs walnut sized gold nuggets while Adam discovers a cave rumored to be Volcanic Browns final resting place.

A recurring mine marker points the team east to neighbouring Harrison Lake as leads and legend line up; clues found in a 1950s article by an investigative reporter place a lost Spanish gold mine directly on Slumachs path.
