Canada, the scene of so many of this author`s novels, furnishes only the starting point for this story. When he first has news of impending war Andrew Johnstone, whose career as a soldier was early cut short by an accident, returns to his home in Scotland hoping that there will be work there even for a man who cannot fight. His friend Whitney, an American who has been his partner on many a Canadian trail and waterway, goes with him. Johnstone also has a personal reason in going home. His young cousin Harry, for whom he feels responsible, has fallen under unfortunate influences, and it is in keepIng a close watch on the two men who are distrusted as companions for the younger man that Johnstone`s opportunity to serve his country comes, for they prove to be her enemies as well.
