Drum Dance: Arctic, cartea 3

DRUM DANCE deals with some pretty mature adult themes Packed with action, adventure and paranormal mystery, and set in the Canadian Arctic in the late 1930s, the intriguing plot blends Inuit traditions with the external conflicts between 17-year-old David Jansson and his despotic father, Per, while they simultaneously struggle against their own inner demons. And while David finds solace in memories of and visitations from his dead mother, his father sinks ever deeper into alcoholic degradation. There's black magic, illusion, and danger afoot in this area where Sir John Franklin and his crew froze to death searching for the Northwest Passage

David agrees to spend two years at an isolated fur-trading post with his estranged father, Per, manager for the Hudson's Bay Company. Soon regretting his decision to resume a relationship with his dad, who is not the loving father he remembers-he has become a raging, abusive alcoholic-David foolishly risks his life when he forgets that the Arctic seldom gives a man a second chance.

A gripping read If you've ever wanted to visit the Arctic, this book will take you there.
