The Return of Blue Pete
E-text prepared by Al Haines
"The Return of Blue Pete" by Luke Allan is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set against the backdrop of railway construction in Northern Canada and follows Sergeant Mahon and his interactions with the enigmatic half-breed, Blue Pete, a character who embodies complexity as he navigates his past and present amidst themes of justice, loyalty, and the law. At the start of the narrative, Sergeant Mahon is presented with a troubling letter about sabotage and horse theft occurring far north of his jurisdiction, which ignites a series of reflections on his past encounters with the notorious Blue Pete. The chapter introduces the tensions in the construction camp as workers grapple with both the encroaching dangers and their complex relationships with one another. Amidst this, the personal dynamics between characters such as Mahon, Inspector Barker, and the foreman Torrance begin to unravel, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of loyalty and the repercussions of crime in a rugged landscape marked by hardship and intrigue.
