Icefields Wharton Thomas
Winner of:The Banff Grand National Prize for LiteratureThe Writers Guild of Alberta Best First Book AwardThe Commonwealth Best First Novel Prize (Caribbean and Canada Region)At a quarter past three in the afternoon, on August 17, 1898, Doctor Edward Byrne slipped on the ice of Acturus glacier in the Canadian Rockies and slid into a crevasse . . The ice in front of him is lit with a pale blue-green radiance. .Nearly sixty feet below the surface, Byrne is wedged upside down between the narrowing walls of a chasm, fighting his desire to sleep.
In this moment, his life becomes a quest to uncover the mystery of the icefield that almost became his tomb. There, embedded in he pure, antediluvian glacier, Byrne sees something that will inextricably link him to the vast bed of ice, and the people who inhabit this strange corner of the world.
