King of the Royal Mounted

The Village of the Dead

par

King of the Royal Mounted follows Sergeant King of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police as he serves in the Canadian wilderness. The series draws on the frontier-adventure tradition associated with Zane Grey, placing its Mountie hero amid remote communities and rugged landscapes.

Radio brings the adventures to life through dramatic scenes, dialogue, and sound effects that evoke the outdoors and the dangers of life on the frontier. The stories center on law enforcement, encounters with people in isolated settlements, and the challenges King faces in carrying out his duties.

The result is an adventure drama with a strong sense of place, combining action and suspense with the familiar figure of a resourceful Mountie. “The Village of the Dead” is presented as the episode title.
