An International Mountie
RCMP Constable Alexandra Houston finally gets a break from a series of hair-raising assignments and heads for Alaska on vacation. While there she hopes to investigate the origins of Silver, her best friend and police-dog partner, and hike the famous Chilkoot Trail. Meanwhile, a young Girl Guide gets lost in the wilds of Alaska and comes to experience first-hand the meaning of the Guides and Scouts motto: “Be Prepared.”

“An Inexorable Mountie… is another strong novel from author Laurie Schramm… The focus and growth of Alex Houston's character continues to evolve and… [e]ach adventure puts the reader in the middle of the action… The writer's background allows him a special insight into police procedure, which not all are able to master. His ability to get into the mind and thoughts of his characters is uncanny, very well done. I look forward to reading all the Alex Houston novels, as, being a retired female RCMP officer, I see a bit of myself in every story that is told.“ Cst. Karen Frost, RCMP (Rtd.), from her review in The RCMP Quarterly, 2023, 88(1), p. 78. “
I have read the first seven Mountie novels by Laurie Schramm. As a collector of Mountie books over 60 years, Laurie is now my favorite Mountie author. I can't wait for number eight and beyond.” Staff Sergeant Al Lund, RCMP (Ret'd); author of “Mounties on the Cover”
“An Inconvenient Mountie and An Inconspicuous Mountie are great reads! They are very well written, and very engaging, with lots of interesting details that I found particularly engaging.” Assistant Commissioner Dawson Hovey, RCMP (Ret’d.)
“Anyone who enjoys a moving story with an intriguing plot should read these books. I would recommend serving and retired Members [of the RCMP] to read them, as it will rekindle memories of friendships and camaraderie that have been eroded with the passage of time.” Chief Superintendent William Schramm, RCMP (Ret’d.)
