About this book
When Jimmy's hunting expedition goes terribly wrong, he faces an impossible choice in Harold Bindloss's gripping adventure novel Northwest! Haunted by uncertainty over whether he's fatally shot a Northwest Mounted Policeman, this refined British gentleman must flee into the untamed wilderness of western Alberta and British Columbia to escape the authorities hot on his trail.
Far from the civilized world that shaped him, Jimmy discovers that survival in the harsh frontier demands far more than his privileged upbringing prepared him for. As he ventures deeper into remote landscapes, evading capture while grappling with guilt and doubt, he confronts brutal physical challenges, moral questions, and the raw power of nature itself. Every decision could mean the difference between freedom and facing trial for a crime he may not have committed.
Bindloss masterfully weaves romance and suspense throughout this tale of a man stripped of everything familiar, forced to reinvent himself in an unforgiving land. The contrast between Jimmy's genteel past and his desperate present creates compelling tension that drives the narrative forward.
Perfect for listeners who crave classic adventure fiction with psychological depth, Northwest! offers an unforgettable journey of survival, self-discovery, and redemption set against the magnificent Canadian frontier.
