This was a different kind of book for L’Amour. The main character is an Indian who is an Air Force pilot who is forced down by the Soviets during the Cold War because they want to force him to divulge information. He escapes and lives in the wilds of Siberia, making his way to the Bering Strait to escape to America. It’s the best of his long novels I’ve read.
