A White Death (Paperback or Softback)

In Canada’s High Arctic, Joel joins a crucial expedition to study polar bears amidst the climate crisis. Determined to prove himself, he navigates treacherous terrain and earns his team's trust. Brutal winter storms soon isolate the group, and a sinister presence emerges.

In the unforgiving expanse of Canada’s High Arctic, Joel embarks on the scientific expedition of a lifetime, dedicated to unraveling the mysteries of the world’s polar bear population amidst the looming climate crisis. Eager to prove himself, Joel must navigate the treacherous terrain and gain the trust of his fellow researchers. But as merciless winter storms isolate the team, a sinister force emerges from the shadows.

Isolation and relentless winter storms descend upon the expedition, revealing a harsh reality that transcends the mission. Gruesome deaths punctuate the frozen landscape, and blame swiftly falls upon the powerful polar bears inhabiting the region. However, locals speak of a more ancient and malevolent force—the return of the White Witch. A legendary shape-shifter with a taste for the souls of men, she leaves a trail of terror by tearing out throats with razor-sharp teeth.

As campfire tales collide with the macabre reality, Joel grapples with the unknown. The expedition transforms into a harrowing battle against not only the elements, but a supernatural entity that defies reason. A chilling legend comes to life, forcing Joel to confront the blurred line between folklore and truth.

In this supernatural horror novel, the Arctic becomes a battleground between science and ancient myth, as Joel races against time to uncover the chilling secrets that haunt the icy wilderness. The line between reality and nightmare blurs, and as the White Witch claims her victims, the expedition transforms into a harrowing struggle for both scientific discovery and survival. Will Joel and his team escape the clutches of the Arctic’s icy grip, or fall prey to a force that transcends the boundaries of legend and reality?
