In 1892, running one of the West's fanciest brothels it's a tough game. In a town filled with corrupt police, righteous politicians, and morality committees, Madam Mattie Silks caters to Colorado's gold and silver millionaires. Notorious crime boss 'Soapy' Smith is at the top of the Denver underworld. There are no rules for Smith's gang. They solve problems with bribes and bullets. Charismatic and dangerous, Smith threatens to destroy Mattie's world. She can't escape his sinister dealings. When gold is discovered in the Yukon, Mattie seizes the opportunity for adventure and profit. But Skagway, Alaska is even more lawless than Denver. Mattie must use all her business sense and street smarts to protect those she cares about. Will it be enough? Or will Lady Justice again turn a blind eye? Based on a true story, "The Redemption of Mattie Silks" is an action-packed tale of a woman succeeding in a man's world even when the cards are stacked against her. 650 10 $a Brothels $d 1845 or 1846-1929 650 10 $a Businesswomen $d 1860-1898 650 0 $a Gangsters 650 0 $a Man-woman relationships 650 0 $a Prostitutes 650 0 $a Women capitalists and financiers 650 0 $a Alaska 650 0 $a Colorado $z Denver 650 0 $a Historical fiction 941 $a 1 952 $l EZPE755 $d 20240409012532.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=CA0DDC1AF63611EE80258AC022ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b L3MInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
