About this book
Rain and fog cover San Francisco as Horace Stirling looks for a way back to sea. His attempt at chicken farming has failed, his money is running out, and rumours of an Arctic voyage draw him into the Blubber Room, a waterfront meeting place for sailors. A sudden disturbance there pulls the experienced ice pilot into danger before the northern passage has even begun.
Henry Leverage's sea adventure follows Stirling into waters where practical seamanship matters as much as courage. Aboard the Pole Star, he faces confinement while the ship speeds toward the Siberian coast with a revenue cutter in pursuit. Conversations with the mate reveal uneasy loyalties and doubts about Captain Marr's plans.
