BRIDGE OF GOLD By Kimberley Woodhouse, Reviewed by Paula Shreckhise

Bridge of Gold was an excellent addition to Doors of the Past series. Ms. Woodhouse did a stellar job connecting two timelines around a treasure from an old ship to the building of the Golden Gate Bridge. Kayla, a present day diver and archeologist is hired by the Mayor of San Francisco to investigate a sunken ship found by Steven, another diver,who is restoring the bridge. 

The mystery ramps up when they find treasure and bones! The story goes back and forth from the present to 1933 when construction on the bridge began. The author plots an interesting and believable tale as she imparts fascinating information about San Francisco and what lies beneath. In both timelines, a greedy villain is preventing the search for gold from going forward and puts divers in danger. 

I was kept guessing as to who was the one behind the dastardly deeds. As with her other historicals, Ms. Woodhouse did extensive research and the result is an engaging story with a solid faith thread.

*I purchased this book from Christian Books in February 2023. All opinions are my own.*5 stars and. Solid faith thread

Repairs on the Golden Gate Bridge Uncover a Century-Old Murder

Walk through Doors to the Past via a new series of historical stories of romance and adventure.

Underwater archaeologist Kayla Richardson is called to the Golden Gate Bridge where repairs to one of the towers uncovers two human remains from the late 1800s and the 1930s. The head of the bridge restoration is Steven Michaels, who dives with Kayla, and a friendship develops between them. But as the investigation heats up and gold is found that dates back to the gold rush, more complications come into play that threaten them both. Could clues leading to a Gold Rush era mystery that was first discovered during the building of the bridge still ignite an obsession worth killing for?
