About this issue

This pocket novel, "The Tangled Trail; or, Signals of Danger" by Major Max Martine, is a frontier romance and adventure story set in the Dakota Territory during the 1860s. It concerns Lucy Graham, whose eccentric, monomaniacal father—a failed inventor obsessed with producing a "philosopher" son-in-law—relocates her to the remote Red River Settlement beyond civilization. There, Lucy becomes the object of desire for two suitors: Pierre Dupont, a wealthy half-breed trader, whom her father brutally rejects, and Willard Jackson, a mysterious young trapper the father also forbids. After Dupont swears revenge, Jackson adopts an Indian disguise to surveil Dupont's activities among the Unk-pa-pa nation, vowing to prevent both Dupont and the coming Indian outbreak from harming Lucy. The narrative interweaves frontier life details, family conflict, and emerging danger.
