Dick Kent with the Mounted Police

Two young companions pursue adventure in a sparsely settled northern frontier, traveling between trading posts by canoe and sled. They face natural hazards including rapids, fires, blizzards, and dangerous wildlife, and confront human threats such as outlaws, a scarred suspect, stolen huskies, and an attack on a fort. An experienced scout and elements of the mounted police provide aid as the pair rescue friends, track enemies, and endure underground and nighttime perils. The episodic narrative emphasizes loyalty, practical resourcefulness, and the demands of survival in a harsh, isolated landscape.
