She ventures aboard the titular ice schooner, a vessel unlike any other, as it navigates treacherous fjords and the harsh Arctic terrain. This setting serves not only as a backdrop for her physical journey but also as a stage for a gripping adventure woven with themes of survival, exploration, and the resilience of the human spirit.
