Girl in ice by Erica Ferencik


 This was a very good book. A page turner and very interesting in a way that it was different than any other kind of book that I've read before. Did learn something as will.

Val Chesterfield is a linguist train to study languages. Her brother Andy was a climate scientist and was in Greenland's barren coast and he died there. She blamed Wyatt for what happened because he worked for him. She didn't believe the story that was given. 

Then, one day she gets a message from Wyatt that he had a girl there that he found and she wasn't speaking an language he was understanding and he wanted her to come to the Arctic to help him understand her. She had gone to see her dad, told him what was asked of her and her dad said maybe she should go. It was a trip she was a little iffy on. Her dad talked her into it. 

She wasn't the only one's going. She met Nora and her husband Raj. They were doing some research up there. She wasn't going to be alone. When they got there. Wyatt told them this story about finding the girl frozen in ice. At first, they didn't believe him at all. Val went into the room she was staying in and looked at her. She was all dirty and wearing an old Christmas sweater. She looked like she had been through something. 

Jeanne was a lady that did all the cooking and fixing of things there. She seemed harmless. The longer she was there trying to figure out what language the girl spoke the more the girl started to show her pictures of stuff she was trying to tell Val. 

Wyatt started to suspect that Val was hiding things from him. He started showing her a side of himself that made her nervous. She had been learning some of her language and was trying to tell him about it, but he didn't seem to want to know that. She knew there was something else going on. So, while they were out doing some things, she started snooping. She found slides he had been hanging onto. She took the girl which she named, Sigrid, with her, out to the dome where Nora and Raj were doing there work. They started to like the girl. It just took them time to get used to her. 

After some time, the girl started to get sick. They didn't know what to do. Sigrid, did try to tell Val what needed to happen to help her and Val tried to tell Wyatt and he called her a liar. Things are going to happen and it may not be good. 

Pick up the book if you want to know what happens. Remember to check old the older posts, you might find a new book to pick up. 

Well, I'm off to start a new book. Enjoy a good book, you never know what is out there, tell you find it.
