Set in San Francisco during twelve days in April 1906 and ending the evening after the great earthquake. Lorelei, an apparently young woman of an ancient and mysterious lineage who is the last surviving daughter of Lilith keeps to the night, and appears in a world of tong wars,sexual slavery,corruption and unmatched wealth seeking a lover as her deeds change history. Native American spirituality, ancient Jewish myth,and Christian and Chinese cultures all collide in a rush as the earth awakens beneath, and willing human sacrifice transcends the veneer of civilization.

"Bruce Lee Bond's marvelous novel, THE BROKEN COAST, should take its rightful place among the poignant and poetic portraits of a marvelous time in the marvelous city of San Francisco—a city of Chinese Tongs and parlor girls, a time of love and transformation, brutality and mysticism..."—James Dalessandro

Excerpts

Your own forefathers killed to have and hold the land where you were born, and sought to extinguish the memories and souls of those that were slain. What of those who prayed in the mountains of Appalachia for thousands of years? That to me is an abomination, although it is the way of men.
added by Mara Hodges.
Long after you have reached the end of your natural span, part of you will dwell within me . . . as I shall be in you to the last of your days and even after.
added by Mara Hodges.
All I can tell you is that at the end, there's nothing left but love.
added by Mara Hodges.
Part of me shall dwell in my daughter to call upon in times of need of course.
added by Mara Hodges.
Absolution exists, call it Christian or whatever. It’s far older than any creed, and one of our blessings.
added by Mara Hodges.
