http://www.pgdp.net  a"The Slave of the Mine; Or, Jack Harkaway in 'Frisco" by Bracebridge Hemyng is a novel written in the late 19th century. This adventure-packed story revolves around the main character, Jack Harkaway, as he navigates the treacherous world of gambling, deceit, and villainy in San Francisco. Following a series of unfortunate events, Harkaway finds himself caught in a web of conspiracy involving dangerous bandits and a plot that could lead him to slavery in the diamond mines of Brazil.  At the start of the narrative, readers are introduced to a gambling den filled with characters embroiled in high stakes and tension, including the enigmatic Mr. Smith and professional gambler Dan Markham. As the night unfolds, the focus shifts to Clarence Holt, a man ensnared by his gambling habits, who finds himself in dire straits due to forgery. Mr. Smith, later revealed to be Lord Maltravers, intervenes with his own ulterior motives. A startling conflict arises when Harkaway confronts Maltravers in a gambling house, leading to a series of betrayals that see Harkaway threatened with capture and an uncertain fate that could involve servitude in the mines. The opening portion effectively sets the stage for a tale filled with suspense, moral dilemmas, and the struggle for redemption.
