| Summary: | Zachary Knox, a sharpshooter known as "the Bull's-Eye
Telepath," heads north in search of gold. On his way he
meets Sephy, a magnetic woman on the trail of her lost
brother. But on arrival, they find the mining camp is home
to a shadowy mining company. The mine boss, Trevillian,
rules the camp like a despotic priest, and at the center
of his faith is Hope, an elusive goddess for whom the
miners toil, enduring increasingly perilous trials as they
pursue her into the depths of the earth. Zack determines
to overthrow Trevillian, guided by Sephy's cryptic
directions, until Hope appears and reveals the astonishing
future she has in mind for him. The Hope We Seek
transports us to a netherworld of danger and allure, where
arduous labor, sustained by unwavering belief, promises an
unearthly reward. Shapero holds a dark mirror to the
passions that drive us, and the extremes to which we go to
find meaning in our lives |
