Overview: 1863-Camille Kubilay is at the center of a nightmare. Peddling wares with her grandfather in the countryside of Kansas and Missouri, she is sucked into the whirlwind of hatred that is the American Civil War. Instead of armies doing battle here, Bushwhackers and Jay Hawkers exact their hatred and revenge on ordinary citizens. Her home becomes a land where bloodshed is commonplace and violent raids are applauded.
Fleeing in a wagon train to Denver brings even more disaster as Camille finds herself alone and destitute in a savage boom town. But she refuses to lose hope, seeking beauty and opportunity amid the chaos. Selling luxury goods to bordellos, her entrepreneurial talents soar, and peddling paradise to others becomes her passion. With grit and determination, Camille builds a retail empire that rivals the country’s biggest and most fashionable department stores. However, her hard-headed determination is challenged when she becomes infatuated with a writer and activist as willful as her. When he confronts the titans of the railroads, Camille is drawn into his dangerous world of exposing monsters and the Great Railroad Strike of 1877.
