When Arctic guide Edie Kiglatuk stumbles across a body abandoned in the Alaskan forest, she little imagines what her discovery will lead her to.
On Craig Island, a vast landscape of ice north of the Arctic Circle, three travellers are hunting duck. Among them is Inuit hunter and guide, Edie Kiglatuk, a woman born of this harsh, beautiful terrain. The two men are tourists, but when one of them is shot dead, the local Council of Elders is keen to dismiss it as an accident.
