Spring has come to White Bear Landing and so has the law, in the firm hands of Royal Mounted policeman and pilot Bob Dixon. Dixon s as gruff, tough and good-looking as Russell Crowe, and in this outpost halfway between the arctic mines and civilization, he s known for taking the law to extremes.More than once Dixon has meted out his own brand of rough justice with hard fists and hot lead, but now the tables have turned. The past has come back to haunt him, he s been set up as a murder suspect, and a rogue s gallery of enemies are lining up to settle old scores . . .Out on the icy tundra, on the edge of the world, revenge can be cold and brutal. Dixon s only hope is to let the trust of a good friend and the love of a good woman lead the way to true justice and redemption on "Arctic Wings."Hubbard never wrote a word, conceived a character, or described a setting without first finding out all he could about the people and places that drove his stories. He wrote: I began to search for research on the theory that if I could get a glimmering of anything lying beyond a certain horizon, I could go deep enough to find an excellent story.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
THE LAW HAS ALWAYS BEEN ON HIS SIDE. NOW IT IS HUNTING HIM.
Royal Mounted Police pilot Bob “Lawbook” Dixon is feared across Canada’s Far North for his rigid devotion to justice. His uncompromising code was forged by a father who was one of Canada’s greatest judges—and whose harsh discipline taught Bob to see the law in absolutes.
Nancy McClane has every reason to challenge those absolutes. Her father was sent to prison by Judge Dixon and died there, leaving Nancy alone at a trading post just north of the Arctic Circle. Yet she sees something in Bob that others do not—and forces him to confront the difference between law and justice.
Then a payroll plane disappears. When the aircraft is found shot down, the evidence points to Dixon as a murderer and thief. Disgraced, hunted and stripped of the identity that has defined him, Dixon sinks so low that he sees no reason to go on. Nancy refuses to let him surrender. Believing in his innocence, she risks herself to help him fight back, find the real criminals and clear his name.
With radium mines, stolen payrolls, wilderness pursuit, betrayal and aerial dogfights over the Canadian Arctic, Arctic Wings is an intense action adventure blending crime, action suspense and aviation with a deeper conflict over guilt, mercy and redemption. Readers praise its tight plot, fast-moving action, suspense and vivid dogfight scenes.
