On thin ice

Bastedo, Jamie 1955- (Author).

Summary: "Though all the adventures in this novel are fictitious, they are based on well documented events that have occurred in the Arctic. A freak blizzard that lasts almost a week. A catastrophic flood that destroys half a coastal town. An explosive ice sheet that moves as fast as a man can run. A polar bear half starved by bizarre weather and sea ice patterns. Whole hillsides torn open by melting permafrost. A huge frozen catacomb carved deep underground. A shaman who strides easily in and out of dreams. All these threads are woven into the novel from the real-life stories and experiences of Arctic people. " --Author's website.
