Publisher's Synopsis
Return of the Ice Men is an historical fiction based loosely on the lives of Halcrow and Laurence Humphrey. Captain Halcrow Humphrey departs from his home in the Shetland Islands to sail to the Hudson's Bay Company in Rupert's Land (Canada), leaving behind Christina Laurenson, the woman who loves him. He signs with an expedition commanded by the famous explorer, John Richardson, to investigate and explore the icy waters of the Arctic in search of the North/West Passage. Back in the Shetland Islands, Halcrow's brother, Laurence, helps Christina pick up the broken pieces of her heart. He knows that she is still in love with Halcrow, but he has been in love with her for such a very long time that he tells her that he will wait for her as long as it takes. This is a story about new beginnings.
