Treynor is a novel written in the early 20th century. It’s a northern adventure-mystery set among the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and the subarctic wilderness. The story centers on Kitchener Tearl’s pursuit of a cryptic radio message that propels him after his estranged brother, Sergeant Buck Tearl, and toward the long-cold mystery of their missing father. Along the way he collides with the guarded Diane and a violent ex-con, Simeon Bent, as law, loyalty, and survival intertwine in the snowbound North. The opening of the novel begins with a radio broadcast to an RCMP outpost that Kitchener Tearl overhears in New York, stirring old family wounds: a grandfather who served the Hudson’s Bay Company, a father–Inspector Bill Tearl–who vanished twelve years earlier, and a fugitive brother, Jerry. Kit rushes north through Port-o’-Prayer, hires dogs, and falls in with a wary, scarred traveler who calls himself Jim; a night-time glimpse at the man’s ivory-handled revolver reveals it once belonged to Kit’s father. Reunited in the woods with Jerry—now Sergeant Buck—Kit learns of a gold-laden sledge, a murdered woman at Great Owl Run, and the likely guilt of Simeon Bent, while Jerry hints at a distant Inuit band led by a white man who wears a police badge. After a tense encounter with Diane, who seeks her “uncle” Jim Durand and denies sending the broadcast, the brothers agree to split: Kit will assume Jerry’s post at Saut Sauvage and shadow Bent, while Jerry heads toward Queen Maud Sea to chase the rumor that the dead do not always die.
