Tenderness of Wolves

Opis książki:

I bought this book on a whim when the front cover caught my eye and was absolutely delighted with it.
The story is set in 1867 in the Canadian outback. It starts with a murder and the search for a young seventeen year old boy accused of his murder. One by one, different groups of people set out in search of the young boy, all with their own reasons for wanting to find him.
The story is interwoven with many underlying themes, love, greed, inter-racial relationships and an unsolved previous town mystery. The visualisation of the cold, hard landscapes and the hardness of these pioneers lives is extremely strong and you cannot help but become involved with the characters - and there are a lot of characters! I found myself having to stop and remind myself who was who, but dont let that stop you from reading this novel. It is absolutely fantastic with a poingant ending.
