Produktbeschreibung

In 1938 a world war was in the offing, but the need to supply good weather information was still

important. The most significant weather in the South came from the Arctic, and so remote stations

were established there to regularly report conditions. Each year a supply ship went north to resupply

stations with new staff, and all the provisions of every sort needed to survive at least a year.

A new station had been built on Northampton Island and three new men were sent there for the next

year. The recruitment process was not the best, and one man soon decided that he shouldn't have gone

north, especially after being injured in a huge storm on the way north. Not enough vetting had taken place

by the Federal Department.

The dangers and vicissitudes of the Arctic would prove the greatest tests of the men's mettle, and brought

out the weaknesses of character that would prove fatal: wild weather, total dark, disease, awesome

animals. Who would survive, and how, became the major questions the men faced.
