Helpful Score: 6
So Canadian in its sensibility. Great to read a novel set in the 1860's that doesn't involve the U.S. Civil War - there is more universe out there. Well written, the story slowly evolves, wraps you in the characters, vividly evokes the winter landscape, and develops a tense drama. It illuminates life one hundred fifty years ago in actions described and words used. It does not always have to be graphic, rough sex and shoot em up action. This author can still convey love and tenderness along with violence with descriptive passages and characters. I don't think I want to repost my copy of this book; it is worth a reread.
