Summary
1842. Stranded on Deception Island in the South Atlantic, her whaling captain husband lost at sea, Karina is destitute and desperate. Disguised as a cabin boy, she stows away on a British ship. But Karina is about to get a nasty surprise.
As she grows closer to ship's surgeon Joseph Hooker, Karina and the rest of the crew find themselves pushed to the limits both physically and emotionally as conditions worsen on board. Engulfed in the chillingly hostile Antarctic landscape, something extraordinary happens - and Karina's story becomes intertwined with some of the 20th century's bravest polar explorers....

Beautifully constructed tale of characters woven in polar history
Lots to like: being immersed in the Antarctic, reimagining well-known explorers seduced by its harsh beauty, reliving their dreams and where they’re happiest, and seeing how women feature in their lives. I liked the way it was read too. No dislikes.
