Satisfaction Guaranteed. As its mildest Lac L'Outre was not a sociable community. After the murder of Seth Grindley every stranger was under suspicion. Alan Laramie, returning from five months of prospecting, found himself promptly charged with murder on his arrival at the settlement. Even to himself his story sounded thin. But when talk of lynching is in the air it is dangerous to wait for long investigation. Just one person believed in his innocence, and that one, a girl. This is a story of flight through the wilderness, followed every mile by man-hunters, a story of the Canadian Northwest even more exciting than the author's "Challenge of the North" and "resurrection River." If you like red-blooded romance, you will greatly enjoy this book. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 2207ec983
