Alaska, 1974. Untamed. Unpredictable. And for a family in crisis, the ultimate test of the human spirit.

A rich, compelling novel of love, sacrifice and survival, as epic
as the Alaskan landscape it so vividly describes -- Kate Morton
I didn't just love this book, I became obsessed with it [. . .] The
characters were flawed and vulnerable, strong and naive, and Hannah
has delivered a masterclass in all the different ways love can both
save us and destroy us. She is an absolutely lyrical writer [. . .
] she perfectly captures and evokes the majesty and splendid
isolation of Alaska and it feels a privilege to have journeyed
there with her. This is a story that will stay with me for a long,
long time. -- Karen Swan
Epic . . . By the end, I was surrounded by snow drifts of tissues
damp with my tears * Washington Post *
Great characters, great plots, great emotions, who could ask for
more in a novel? -- Isabel Allende on The Nightingale
Beautifully written . . . packed with action and emotion -- Sara
Gruen, bestselling author of Water for Elephants on The
Nightingale
Movingly written and plotted with the skill of Greek tragedy.
You'll keep turning the pages until the last racking sob --
