The Swan Bonnet
批評家のレビュー
“What a relaxing, classic, and vibrant story.” (HarperCollins review at Authonomy.com)
“...many readers will find this nostalgic 'study' of individuals in a time and place when life was both simple and complex but 'loser to earth' most thought provoking and enjoyable” (John Manhold, Historical Novel Society
“Beautiful characterizations and clear insights into frontier days in the Alaska of the Prohibition Era” (Sterling Gate Books)
あらすじ・解説
Unbeknown to Dawn, her grandfather has shot an old swan out of mercy. In their coastal Alaskan town, her father buys the swan pelt, preventing her Uncle Alex, a fur trader, from selling it for export. Dawn’s father surprises her part-Aleut mother with a hat she helped to make and also with an idea to catch poachers. Shooting swans has become illegal but Alaska is a territory and prohibition occupies the Sheriff.
Dawn and her mother become involved with suspicious inquiries about the swan bonnet besides its haunting effect. Because Dawn’s grandparents see the swans first, Dawn agrees to secretly watch the migration with the deputy sheriff’s son. But after she and her mother encounter women from a ship and find out about a hunting party, they ride to the inlet. There are townspeople roving the shore too but who is the vigilante and who is the poacher?
