Beschreibung

Set against the rugged backdrop of the Canadian wilderness, Theodore Goodridge Roberts' "Brothers of Peril" is a masterfully woven narrative that explores the profound depths of brotherhood, survival, and moral choices in the face of adversity. Roberts employs a richly descriptive literary style, evocatively bringing to life the characters' internal struggles and the often-harrowing external challenges they encounter. The book fits within the early 20th-century tradition of adventure literature, yet it distinguishes itself with nuanced character development and ethical dilemmas that resonate with modern sensibilities. Theodore Goodridge Roberts was not only a novelist but also a poet, and his deep appreciation for nature and human experience is evident in every page of "Brothers of Peril." Born and raised in the diverse landscapes of Canada, his own experiences with the wilderness inform the authenticity and vivid imagery that permeate the story. Roberts was a passionate advocate for ecological consciousness, which arises in the conflicts between man and nature throughout his work, positioning him as a significant voice in Canadian literature. I highly recommend "Brothers of Peril" to readers who seek a compelling blend of adventure and introspection. Its engaging narrative and ethical quandaries invite reflection on the bonds that unite us, making it an enriching read for anyone interested in literature that transcends mere escapism.

The resurgence of the Irish brotherhood. An unidentified woman's body spilling out of a steamer trunk with freezer burn on her arms. The beginning of a new export industry for New Zealand that brought the country out of recession. An untimely earthquake. And a case with too many threads for Mr. Hardy. 
Sent to the Wellington docks to watch for members of the Irish Brotherhood, Constable Foster narrowly avoids death -- twice in one day. But when a body spills from a broken steamer trunk bound for Napier, and Foster's mate dies from a poisoned pie intended for Foster, Mr. Hardy is sent down to Wellington to investigate. The mustering on sheep from the north east, the slaughterhouse near the docks, and the new technology for freezing meat to transport it by sea, all have his attention. 
Mr. Hardy now has several mysteries to investigate. Who is trying to kill Constable Foster, and who killed the young woman in the sea chest? Who was the young woman in the chest? Meanwhile, Beatrice and Aroha bond over a mysterious kidnapping, but will never agree on the issue of clothing.
