Five Nights

At three on a June morning, Trevor Lonsdale watches a glacier thunderously break apart—and sees, in a scene blazing with colour, a vast world slowly dying.

Aboard the little Cottage City, threading Alaska’s ice-choked Taku Inlet, Trevor is drawn toward the Muir Glacier’s splendour and away from the shipboard talk of hardship and gold. An artist and a lover of solitude, he finds the North stirring memories and questions that the grandeur around him cannot quiet. Across five nights, beauty, love and longing gather weight against the fragile span of a human life. What does Trevor see when he turns from the glacier to the past he carries?
