When Mona Frentiss dies, she has her confidante "Doctor Bobs" watch over her family, especially her youngest daughter Patricia. The family has been raised in a most unconventional manner, with Mona having a much younger lover and the father Ralph keeping his own lover on the side. As Patricia grows older, she attracts the attention of her mother's former lover, the much older (than Patricia, who in the book is in her early to mid teens) Carey Scott. Patricia tempts fate with her wild ways, nearly loses her virtue to a musician aboard an ocean-going boat, and is saved in time by Carey. Realizing that he is the man for her, she settles down into an experimental marriage.

Michael Dane part au nord du Canada rejoindre son frère, Peter, qui a trouvé de l'or avec son partenaire, Angus McKenzie. En route, Dane rencontre Estelle McDonald et tombe amoureux d'elle. Lorsqu'il arrive au comptoir, Dane découvre que Peter a été assassiné. Les autorités locales accusent McKenzie et le condamnent à suivre la "piste de la mort", une sorte de torture au cours de laquelle le prisonnier doit marcher accompagné par des gardiens, jusqu'à ce qu'il meure de faim ou d'épuisement. Dane est soumis à la même torture lorsqu'il essaye d'aider McKenzie, accusé à tort. Ils arrivent à s'évader, et Dane doit se battre contre une meute de loups. Estelle les suit en canoë, poursuivie elle-même par Cameron McDonald, son oncle, le véritable assassin de Peter Dane. McDonald meurt après une poursuite au-dessus d'une chute d'eau, et Dane et Estelle repartent vers la civilisation.
