About This Book

Set on the Labrador coast, the narrative follows a close-knit family and their neighbor Doctor Joe as they struggle to save a boy's failing sight and to raise funds through winter trapping. Two adolescent brothers undertake a perilous interior season with a half-breed guide, confronting blizzards, wolves, and violent encounters while trailing a stolen silver fox pelt. Episodes move between domestic life, scouting and hunting adventures, and tense pursuits that test loyalty, resourcefulness, and endurance, culminating in capture, rescue, and the resolution of mysteries born of the harsh frontier environment.
