About

Toehold, Alaska, is a bush village as far away from the world as you can get without falling into the Arctic Ocean. For years, Cody, a taxidermist, and Mel, a gal drifter, have ignored the romantic tension between themselves—until the appearance of an outsider, a hard-edged Hollywood producer, triggers a change.

"In Foreman's assured prose [the characters'] stories come to life, for a denouement that flows as smoothly as the river."
