Beyond the Frozen Horizon

What’s it about?

The story.

In a near future where climate laws have created protected wilderness zones, the earth is beginning to recover — and Rory is beyond excited to join her geologist mother on a work trip to the frozen north. Her mum works for Greenlight, a company that promises to extract rare minerals sustainably for renewable technology. But when they reach the supposedly abandoned mining town of Pyramiden, Rory finds families still living there, opposed to the project, and evidence that Greenlight's operations threaten the reindeer and the fragile land itself. As Rory makes an unlikely friend and pieces the truth together, she realises she may be the only one able to expose what's really going on. Nicola Penfold delivers an atmospheric Arctic adventure with just the right mix of spookiness, intrigue and mystery — a story that is both a warning and a celebration of nature, and of the difference one determined person can make. Vivid, gripping climate fiction with a beating heart.
