A missing heiress. A fortune in limbo. And a Chinatown kingpin who won’t let her go...

When railroad magnate Theodosius Vanderbeck dies suddenly, his final will leaves a massive inheritance to his long-lost daughter Lillian—if she can be found alive.

But Lillian has vanished into San Francisco’s shadowy underworld, married to a mysterious Chinese merchant known only as Governor Gum. Her dissolute brother, furious at being disinherited, will do anything to claim her share… even murder.

Enter Old and Young King Brady, the legendary detective duo tasked with locating Lillian and the child she bore—a search that plunges them deep into opium dens, corrupt courts, secret joss houses, and the deadly world of the Highbinders.

From New York to El Paso to San Francisco’s Chinatown, the Bradys must untangle a web of lies, danger, and deceit. But when allies become suspects and killers lurk in every alley, even they may be outmatched.

Can they uncover the truth before a grieving husband loses everything—and a killer claims the fortune for himself?

The Bradys and Governor Gum is a riveting tale of betrayal, love, and justice in the gaslight era—perfect for fans of classic detective fiction and vintage pulp thrillers.
