Summary "The Flaming Forest" by James Oliver Curwood is a novel written during the early 20th century. The story revolves around David Carrigan, a Sergeant in the Royal Northwest Mounted Police, who finds himself on a mission in the northern wilderness, tasked with capturing the notorious outlaw Black Roger Audemard. The vivid setting of the North, combined with themes of adventure and survival, is likely to captivate readers who enjoy tales of exploration and the stark beauty of nature. The opening portion of the book introduces us to David Carrigan as he reflects on the splendor of his solitary journey deep into the forest. His peaceful contemplation quickly turns into a fight for survival when he is suddenly ambushed by a skilled adversary. In this tense moment, he learns that his intended assailant is actually a woman, Jeanne Marie-Anne Boulain, which adds a layer of intrigue to the plot. After being shot, Carrigan becomes conscious of his surroundings, revealing the complexities of his feelings towards his assailant, who, instead of finishing her attempt on his life, saves him. Thus, the narrative sets the stage for a tale of danger, unexpected relationships, and the mysteries of the North that Carrigan must navigate. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
