The Lone Trail

"The Lone Trail" by Luke Allan is a story from the early 1900s that takes place in the Canadian West, where cowboys work ranches and the Royal North-West Mounted Police keep the peace. When Inspector Barker and Corporal Faircloth get involved in a murder investigation, the book shows us how important justice and friendship are. The story begins with the inspector writing reports until he hears about a rancher's murder, which makes everything feel urgent. Then, Morton Stamford, who is a newcomer journalist, tries to understand his new wild surroundings. As the cowboys and a mysterious ranch owner interact, the book paints a picture of dramatic relationships and exciting mysteries.
