520    $a End of the 1930s. Lorna del Rio hurriedly leaves the beautiful Hollywood neighborhoods with little Jessie and heads to the Great Northwest of the Yukon and Alaska, on the roads, by sea and on the old Indian tracks. His journey crosses the legends of the epic of gold and trappers of yesteryear, with for only guide a mysterious crazy map and his ammunition of first necessity: his mink stole, his cosmetic bag, his colt, a fortune stolen from the chest of Oswald Campbell, the late Jessie's daddy daddy; and especially a bag full of nasty secrets. Where does it come from, what is it leaking? What is the intrepid pin-up looking for, changing his name all the time and lying as he breathes? The story of this mare is Jessie who, fifteen years later, one evening in April 1954, tells Bud Cooper, in the suburbs of Anchorage. For who else but Bud would listen to see what Jessie's six-year-old daughter, protected by Kaska, the Gwich'in Indian, fled to another tribe and finally exfiltrated by the man the FBI paid to "deliver" the girl? Novel of Memory and the Last Frontiers, Legends and Amerindian Myths, The Great North-Westalso invites between his pages, where the shadow of Jack London hovers, a galaxy of fictional figures in which Lewis Carroll's Alice meets Little Red Riding Hood, Donkey's Skin or Ali Baba, but also the Kid of Chaplin and Citizen Kane. With this masterful new novel, Anne-Marie Garat invites the reader once again to a dazzling journey.
