'Harding's exquisite novel is a masterpiece ... a profound meditation on survival, atonement and faith' Daily Telegraph 'Outstanding ... Thomas Cave's ordeal should hold readers fast in an icy grip' Independent 'A haunting, beautifully written first novel, this tale lingers in the back of your mind long after you have finished it' Harper's Bazaar 'A wonderfully well-written story ... At a time when faith of any description seems unfashionable, Harding's parable is a haunting reminder of where we went wrong' Independent on Sunday
It is August 1616, the whaling ship Heartsease has ventured deep into the Arctic, but the crew must return home before the ice closes in. All, that is, save Thomas Cave.

So he is left with provisions, shelter, and a journal - should he not live to tell the tale
