Nothing on the tundra rotted . . . There was nowhere here for bones to hide.On Craig Island, a vast landscape of ice north of the Arctic Circle, three travellers are hunting duck. Among them is hunter Edie Kiglatuk, a woman born of this harsh, beautiful terrain. When, to Edie's horror, one of the men is shot dead in mysterious circumstances, she finds the local Council of Elders all too keen to dismiss it as an accident. Then two adventurers arrive in Autisaq, hiring Edie and her stepson Joe as their guides, and the two parties set off in different directions. Four days later, Joe returns frostbitten, hypothermic and disoriented, and reports his man missing. And when things take an even darker turn, Edie finds herself heartbroken but determined to hunt for the truth behind these strange and terrible events . . . 'A striking debut' Sunday Times'Distinctive . . . Richly realized . . . a gripping story' Val McDermid'Edie is an ingenious and original creation . . . but the most addictive character . . . is the Arctic itself.' Sunday Telegraph
