THE ICE LOVERS

In 2016 Helen, an historian and David, a government official, journey to a slowly disintegrating Antarctic. Helen is in search of a story; three years before Nara, a young woman scientist disappeared from an Antarctic base; she is presumed dead, though her body has never been recovered. When an international emergency forces Helen and David to overwinter in the Antarctic, a more complex story than the official record emerges – of what happened to Nara, Luke the pilot and Nara’s lover Alexander, and of what is happening to the ice. Sitting at Nara's desk, reading her diaries on a snowed-in Antarctic base, Helen wonders if the ice will ever give up its secrets.The Ice Lovers is a haunting story of ghosts and ice, of beauty and obsession, and the terrible consequences of unrequited love.
