In the rugged landscape of Western Canada, Wallace Vane, a young Englishman, finds himself drawn to the allure of the lumber industry. Seeking fortune and adventure, he embarks on a journey through the vast forests and treacherous mountains surrounding Vancouver and Victoria. He forms a close bond with his friend Carroll, as they navigate the perils and complexities of the timber business, facing both the physical dangers of the wilderness and the treacherous nature of those they encounter. Driven by a desire to succeed and a sense of wanderlust, Vane wrestles with his own internal struggles, questioning his decision to leave his homeland and seeking to find his place in this new world. The novel explores themes of friendship, ambition, and the challenges of forging a new life in a foreign land.
