Excerpt
Something was out there, hanging over them as inexorably as the towering masses of ice that marked the tundra itself. Something circling the camp, stalking them in the endless night. Preying upon her people. And there again, cutting through the great silence of the North. Another howl, and this one asserted a chilling note of triumph. An uncontrollable shudder rattled Alaana to the core. It was the shaman's duty to protect them. Alaana, an inexperienced young shaman of the Anatatook people, faces arctic werewolves, bloodthirsty raiders, soul-stealing demons, and the vengeful ghost of a massive polar bear as she uncovers dark secrets left behind by her teacher Old Manatook. Was her teacher a man pretending to be a bear or a polar bear in the guise of an old man? The mystery unfolds, leading Alaana on an electrifying journey among the polar bears of the Ice Mountain, to the terrifying Underworld, to the bottom of the sea and even the Moon itself. As she seeks answers to the riddles of her supernatural power, she must undertake the greatest challenge of all -- choosing between the love of two very different men.
"Last night," he said, "I felt it. The power, the rage. Whatever it was that killed those dogs. I felt it." Alaana was suddenly afraid for him. His fingers dug into her arm. "How will you kill it, Alaana?" he asked. "You can't kill something that's already dead." Her eyes met his. "It's a ghost, then?" "Everything's a ghost."
