The Bent Spoon
A Tale of Gumption, Gold, and Glory

In the 1930s college chums Tom and Barry embark on an adventure-packed journey that stretches from Estacada, Oregon, to a gold claim in the wilds of Wasilla, Alaska. Along the way the pair and their partners hook up with a cunning old codger and his wily dog who changes their lives forever. And it all begins with a bent spoon.

Along the way they encounter troublemakers, grizzlies, and a cast of colorful characters. In the end, they go to Alaska searching for gold, only to discover the real treasures in their life-faith, love, friendship, charity, and family.
