Canadian author Louise Penny’s latest novel, The Black Wolf, explores themes of U.S. annexation of Canada through a plot involving her protagonist, Chief Inspector Armand Gamache. The story follows Gamache as he uncovers a sinister cross-border scheme targeting Canada’s water resources, reflecting concerns over national sovereignty. Although completed before Trump’s presidency, the novel raises questions about national security and resource control. Penny has also contributed to the Haskell Free Library, a key setting in the book, advocating for its preservation amid border policy changes.
