There is 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 expert
Inuit hunter and guide, Edie Kiglatuk, a woman born of this
harsh, beautiful terrain. The two men are tourists, experiencing
Arctic life in the raw, but when one of the men is shot dead in
mysterious circumstances, the local Council of Elders in the tiny
settlement of Autisaq is keen to dismiss it as an accident. Then
two adventurers arrive in Autisaq hoping to search for the
remains of the legendary Victorian explorer Sir James Fairfax.
The men hire Edie - whose ancestor Welatok guided Fairfax - along
with Edie's stepson Joe, and two parties set off in different
directions.
