James Curwood's firsthand knowledge of the Canadian Northwest adds a rugged realism to this bestselling frontier adventure, a work in the style of Jack London and Zane Grey. Two men on opposite sides of the law bear an uncanny resemblance to each other - when one dies, the survivor assumes the other's identity, only to fall into a plot involving blackmail, murder, and forbidden love.
