The California Gold Rush has begun-and the world surges west. Across America, farmers abandon their fields, convicts dream of escape, and families sell everything they own for the promise of fortune. From the prison blocks of Missouri to the rough frontier towns of California, ambition and desperation collide in a land on the edge of transformation. In Dog Station, law and order unravel as greed, violence, and hope shape a new nation. This sweeping historical epic captures the brutality and promise of the Gold Rush era, where every choice is survival, every risk is destiny, and every dream carries a price. Perfect for fans of Cormac McCarthy, Ken Follett, and Larry McMurtry, Dog Station brings to life the raw struggle of those who gambled everything to chase the American frontier.
James Dargan is the author of over thirty books spanning crime, noir, satire, historical fiction, and literary fiction. Known for razor-sharp dialogue, vivid characters, and a knack for weaving grit with dark humour, his work ranges from the hard-boiled streets of the Napoleon Clancy thrillers to the sprawling crime sagas of The Bayside City series, the evocative Latin American novels, and a host of standalone titles. Dargan's novels often drop readers into morally complex worlds where loyalty is fragile, justice is elusive, and survival depends on quick thinking and a little luck. Influenced by the likes of Elmore Leonard, Dennis Lehane, and Cormac McCarthy, his prose balances propulsive storytelling with atmospheric detail, creating stories that are as cinematic as they are immersive. Whether exploring mob wars and political corruption, the quiet desperation of outsiders, or the chaos of history's turning points, Dargan writes with an unflinching eye and a storyteller's instinct for pacing, character, and place. His work is as much about the people caught in the crossfire as it is about the bullets themselves. James Dargan: Writer, Raconteur, Blogger, and Journalist.
