A young man questions his faith after finding him dead of a morphine overdose, which seals his conviction to find his fortune in the Klondike gold rush. He braves the cold weather and harsh terrain as one of the youngest (and most naive) Klondikers on the journey, only to find that there is no gold or opportunity in Alaska, and quickly finds himself cold, destitute, and exploited. After a near death experience on a cliffside, he becomes heavily indebted and addicted to morphine. At a low point, he considers killing his employer and fleeing with his pistol and a lockbox of what he believes is hard specie, and makes elaborate plans to do so, but has a change of heart standing over his bed at the last moment. He kicks his morphine addiction and works arduously across four years to pay off his debt for his cruel employer, and then returns to California, where he joins a church whose parishioners are majority Chinese immigrants. He asks to study under the Chinese-American preacher, who regards him at first with skepticism, but welcomes him into the parish and preaches an idiosyncratic (and quasi-syncretic) doctrine of pursuing Christ through curbing of desires, asceticism, and even mortification of the flesh. After pursuing an extreme 30-day fast, against the begging of the preacher, he has a vision of his old friend floating over the Klondike mountains with Christ, both of them weeping at the suffering in those cold hills, before turning their face Eastward. Awakened to a new spiritual cause, he is nursed back to health, and leaves the United States aboard a shipping vessel to go spread the gospel in China.
