A Spur Award-Winning Author
In the Rocky Mountain fur trade of the early 1800s, the intense rivalry between the powerful Hudson's Bay Company and the North-West Company is complicated by the arrival of Ilona Baptiste - a lovely and much-desired Metis maiden who could become the catalyst for a bloody trade war between two companies. Young trader Garth Cameron and the brutal H.B.C. woods boss Louis Savard both want Ilona and end up in a pursuit through the Rocky Mountain wilderness, with Ilona the prize.
