The story begins in a remote fort in the Arctic, where Captain Craventy hosts a gathering for the members of the Hudson's Bay Company and some Indigenous guests, including the renowned explorer Paulina Barnett. The novel likely delves into themes of exploration, survival in harsh climates, and the complexities of trade and cultural exchange in the fur trade era. The opening portion of the book takes place during a winter evening at Fort-Reliance, where the captain's festive dinner brings together a mix of officers, soldiers, and Indigenous leaders. As the guests enjoy the modest celebration, details emerge about the preparations for a significant expedition led by Lieutenant Jasper Hobson to explore the northern territories. The arrival of an unexpected traveler, the astronomer Thomas Black, who seeks to observe a specific astronomical phenomenon, adds intrigue and sets the stage for the challenges ahead in this icy landscape. The atmosphere is rife with anticipation as characters like Paulina Barnett express both courage and curiosity for the untamed Arctic wilderness. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
