Summary "The Snow-Burner" by Henry Oyen is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Toppy Treplin, a disillusioned young man who finds himself in the remote and bleak town of Rail Head, where he becomes embroiled in a harrowing world dominated by a figure known as Reivers, the "Snow-Burner." Toppy's aimless life takes a turn as he becomes infatuated with a girl, Miss Pearson, who aims to work at the notorious Cameron Dam, where Reivers exerts a tyrannical control over the laborers. At the start of the book, we meet Toppy, who wakes up in a saloon in Rail Head after a night of reckless drinking. Confused and disoriented, he learns that he arrived in this desolate place after stepping off a train. As he observes his surroundings, he becomes captivated by a young woman, Miss Pearson, who has braved the harsh climate to secure a job working at the Cameron Dam. This dangerous camp is run by the formidable Reivers, known for his brutal methods and iron-fisted leadership. Toppy's sense of duty begins to stir as he sees Miss Pearson facing potential peril; despite his flawed past, he is determined to protect her from the looming threats surrounding Hell Camp and its enigmatic leader.
