Bathurst
Kuhusu kitabu hiki cha kusikiliza
Action and adventures in the Canadian Arctic.
One year past his retirement age, he was heading into his last winter season on the job.
Matt remained at first hesitant about accepting this new two-part assignment. First to move loaded trucks and machines from their North-West Territories shop overland to Bathurst Inlet. Second, orders from head office were to offer Matt the shop supervisor job when they arrive there. He had looked forward to a relaxed work environment for the last winter before retirement, supervising a northern ice road repair shop. Not keeping the machines running at a massive northern construction project.
His soon to be ex-wife lived with her new man in their home in Saskatoon and the dispute over their property had begun. An offer to supervise the heavy equipment maintenance at the company construction site on Bathurst Inlet suited him well. The further away from the drama, the better.
Throughout his years of steady employment, Matt worked various stints in the far north. In this two-part novel, Canadian Arctic life doesn’t turn out quite like he expected.
