Synopsis
An adventure novel by a master writer. An American named Muldrow, shot down during the allied firebombing of Tokyo in 1945, can think only of his native Alaska. He knows that his only chance for survival is to make his way north. Crossing enemy terrain, he is haunted by images of war and a stark white vision. His savagery and even madness escalate as he undertakes this brutal odyssey.

Publisher's Notes
First Line: ""We are going to bring it to him," the Colonel said with satisfaction."
Industry Reviews
"A tour de force and a triumph of the first order."
Pat Conroy
"Exhilarating... The book's closest forebear may be Hemingway's 'The Old Man and the Sea'."
"A great novel... a first-rate adventure story, as relentless and mesmerizing as 'Deliverance'... Both entertainment and literature."
Wilson
"Part existential, part mystical, and richly cinematic throughout... Fits neatly into the long tradition of American literary adventurers and transcendentalists, from Melville and his great white whale to Hemingway."
Wilson
