A woman survives the dramatic crash-landing of an airplane on the Hudson River, only to disappear into thin air. Her husband begins a journey to find her that leads him hundreds of miles from home, to uncover her secrets in the desolate tundra of northern Canada. In his masterful debut novel, Chuck Radda takes readers deep into the new territory of Nunavut, where Martin Wilkes struggles to come to terms with the truth about his wife, his marriage, and ultimately, the meaning of his life. With a wide-ranging cast of characters that includes a cranky detective, a psychic Inuit, a daredevil pilot, and some uptight suburbanites, Radda captures the desperation of a man teetering on the brink of losing everything he holds dear.
