Five men & eight huskies, crossing the Barents Sea by the light of the midnight sun. At last they reach the remote, uninhabited bay on desolate Gruhuken. But the Arctic summer is brief. As night returns to claim the land, Jack feels a creeping unease. Soon he will reach the point of no return ? when the sea will freeze, making escape impossible. And Gruhuken is not un-inhabited. Jack is not alone. Something walks there in the dark.* A FINE ?Author Signed,? text copy of the 1st/1st fnl. with some minimal age & wear now in an un-attached clear protective wrapper.*
