River's End (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781479414635)

A fugitive, a relentless pursuit, and a twist of fate. A Mountie on a mission and the man he chases are bound by a strange likeness. Will justice or mercy prevail in the wild?

In The River's End, James Oliver Curwood presents a gripping tale of survival, identity, and moral conflict in the Canadian wilderness. The story follows Derwent Conniston, a Royal Canadian Mounted Police officer, and a fugitive he pursues who bears an uncanny resemblance to him. When unexpected circumstances bring them together, both men must confront their fates in a story that explores the thin line between duty and compassion.
