White men on the Talking River found in remote cabin

Two starved men, Alan and Noel, stumble upon a log cabin on the Ungara frontier. A bearded, gun-wielding host offers caribou stew and shelter, claiming control of the camp and promising more food after rest. The discovery raises questions about who else is here and why they winter in the rugged interior.

Unfolding Mystery in the Talking River Country

Alan Cameron meets a rugged host named McCord at a desolate outpost near the Sinking Lakes. McCord recounts a treacherous journey from Rupert House with canoes and Indians, prompting questions about who he fears and what dangers lie beyond the wilderness. The scene hints at Windigo legends and a hostile, mythic frontier. A later note reports Soviet Russia's population surge and English shifts toward lighter meals, with Canada and Denmark in poultry markets.
