Audio book I found at the library. Got it entirely for the title. Turned out to be an old school British adventure story. Looked up the author apparently he spent six months each year traveling in some exotic location then the the remaining six months writing a novel set in that place. Nice life!

Hammond Innes takes you to a remote desolate land of Labrador this time. I was curious enough to look up this area on Google Earth. The plot isn't probably the best among his other books, but still keeps your interest till the very end.

I would have loved to give this book a higher rating because the story itself was quite good but it was too long and drawn out, so by the time I got near the end it was like "oh okay that's who did it and that's what really happened".

The novel is suspenseful enough, and the unconventional setting makes it fascinating. An easy book to read - it drew me right in and spat me out the other end. But the blatant racism of the narrator made me extremely uncomfortable. Though it was certainly realistic for both the period the book was set in, and the time in which it was written, the comments concerning the savagery of Native and French Canadian characters were extremely off-putting.
