Snow-blind

The story follows Sergeant Buck Tearl of the mounted police and his comrades after a strange radio plea prompts an expedition into the northern wilderness to locate an indigenous band and investigate a past death. Their journey across snow and ice includes rescues, a young woman found handcuffed to a sledge, clashes between trackers and suspects, vanished footprints, hidden loot, and tense last stands as lawmen and hunters press through blizzard and isolation. Themes of duty, identity, and survival surface amid courtroom threats, shifting allegiances, and the relentless hazards of the polar night.
