In this episode of Confessions of a Book Collector, David Headley sits down with the wildly talented Beth Lewis to explore her stunning new novel, The Rush - a gripping historical crime thriller set during the Yukon Gold Rush of 1898. 

Beth shares what drew her to this icy, lawless frontier and why she chose to spotlight the extraordinary women who braved it. 

From real-life inspiration and wild west research (including actual gold panning!) to the craft of building unforgettable characters, Beth opens up about her creative process, queer representation in fiction, and the beauty of writing women who refuse to be overlooked. 

Whether you're here for the history, the mystery, or the pure love of books, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
