Two lines of poetry and a lump of mineral ore were all he left. Yet they were enough to send mineral expert Bill Gansert to Norway. But word of Farnell's findings had already leaked out - and Gansert found himself caught in a maze of ambition and treachery with roots lying deep in the years of German occupation. Yet the danger from human enemies would be nothing compared to the blinding snow and the blue ice of Norway's glacier country.
