Few people have experienced the high arctic as extensively and as personally as author Whit Fraser. For more than 50 years, beginning as a CBC reporter, his work has taken him to every part of the Canadian Arctic as well as Alaska and Greenland. Over that period, he visited the barren but beautiful, old RCMP detachment at Dundas Harbor, on Devon Island in the Northwest Passage five times. On his most recent trip in 2019, he spent several hours at an abandoned RCMP detachment, and three lonely graves on a hill top, he came away inspired to write this fictional account of life and death, love and lust in Canada's last and frozen frontier.
