Sergeant Philip Trent is a ‘Mountie’, a member of the Canadian Northwest Mounted Police. At the end of the 19th century, it’s up to him and his fellow officers to criss-cross the vast open spaces of Canada to maintain law and order. Sent after a small-time killer, he finds himself saving the beautiful Agnes from a pack of hungry wolves. The young woman has come from the city to find her missing half-brother. Against his better judgement, Trent agrees to help her…

After a botched robbery that claimed the life of his lover, an American outlaw crosses the border into Canada. As he’s already left nearly a dozen dead bodies behind, Sergeant Trent is sent to intercept him. But instead of the expected bloodthirsty murderer, it’s a sensitive young man that the Mountie finds, a free spirit with a deep love of French poetry. How is Trent going to reconcile doing his duty with his nascent liking for the kid?

A heartbreak makes a wreck out of Trent – can he find the strength to pull himself together? The life of a Mountie is a lonely one, always on the road while normal people go home to their loved ones. Time has passed since Trent met Agnes, and the sergeant finally decides to propose to her. But he’s too late – his beloved is gone, already married to another. The news sends Trent into a downward spiral of self-destruction, and it’s a drunken wretch who, a few weeks later, finds himself in a small town harried by brutal bandits...

Trent’s superior tasks him with helping a lady who came to the police to report the disappearance of her husband. The sergeant is stunned to discover the woman he is still in love with: Agnes. Her husband is the manager of a railway construction site far to the northwest, and he hasn’t been heard from in weeks. Worse, his last letters spoke of a mysterious danger threatening the camp. The pair go to investigate...

While escorting a prisoner, Trent stops in a very animated small town: the famous Wild Bill Turkey is passing through on his way to his bride. Bill is a legend among gunfighters of the Old West. An aging one, yes, but that doesn’t prevent him from coming to the Mountie’s help when a group of men try to free his prisoner. A powerful man is behind that attempt, though, and both Trent and Bill suddenly become targets.

Beyond the Arctic Circle, in the freezing cold and never-ending night, the Mounties do their duty and try to resist the creeping assaults of madness and depression. One evening,Trent, alone at his remote outpost, hears a call for help. He finds a couple of Natives, dead of exposure, along with ... a very much alive baby! Reluctantly turned into a polar nurse, the sergeant must leave his shelter – unequipped to cater to its new occupant – to find her a new family...

It’s the best day of Trent’s life: he is finally marrying the beautiful Agnes, after so many years! But there, among the crowd of family and friends cheering the newlyweds, a face from his past casts a pall over his happiness. Other signs eventually confirm it: Miss is back. Helen Dorwell – an alluring and mysterious thief and anarchist ... and Trent’s former mistress. With her in town, the honeymoon could quickly turn into a nightmare...

While Agnes is in Europe to visit family, Trent is given a somewhat unusual mission: to escort a woman to her father’s home. Mrs Taylor has left her husband – a man that alcohol turns horribly violent – and is now taking their son to safety at his grandfather’s – a former senator. Tasked with protecting them, Trent takes a liking to young Jeremy, and begins to dream of his own Little Trent with Agnes – until the father tracks them down...
