Snow-blind
A radio station in Massachusetts broadcasts a letter to Sergeant Buck Tearl of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police at a remote post in northern Saskatchewan: the dead do not always die, it says, and names a band of Inuit who winter on Queen Maud Sea. What follows takes Tearl through a murder, a girl in handcuffs, a ghostly voyageur, a last-stand outpost and the man hunters of the Barren Lands, toward a reckoning with his own past and the snow blindness of the title. Albert M. Treynor published the novel in 1929. It is a northern adventure of the kind the pulps made popular, with the Mounted Police as its heroes and the Arctic winter as its principal antagonist. It is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, with the first chapter free.
