(Frank Lucius) 1877 1942 The Sin That Was His Produced by David Widger from page images generously provided by the Internet Archive "The Sin That Was His" by Frank L. Packard is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set in a Yukon mining camp and follows Arthur Leroy, known as "Three-Ace Artie," a polished yet enigmatic gambler, as he navigates the complex social dynamics of the camp. The plot centers around Artie's interactions with a naive newcomer known as the Kid, and dives deep into themes of ethics, redemption, and personal struggle against a rugged backdrop of winter. The opening of the novel introduces Three-Ace Artie, who is depicted as a well-dressed and skilled gambler in Ton-Nugget Camp. It quickly unfolds how the arrival of a young man, dubbed the Kid, disrupts the status quo, as he spends lavishly and easily attracts the attention of seasoned gamblers like Artie. The atmosphere thickens as Artie observes the Kid's reckless behavior while feeling a modicum of compassion. When Artie ultimately decides to intervene and offer the young man a second chance, tensions rise, resulting in a confrontation that may lead to dire consequences. Through these intricate character interactions and the vivid setting, Packard hints at deeper moral quandaries and personal transformations awaiting in the ensuing chapters.
