"Summer school is in session on Ellesmere Island, and Martha, one of Edie Kiglatuk's students, is missing. When Martha's body turns up in Lake Turngaluk, Edie and her sidekick, Derek Palliser, promise the grieving family they'll deliver justice. But Martha's deeply traditional Inuit father spurns them as outsiders. Meanwhile, bullheaded lawyer Sonia Gutierrez is on her own crusade to investigate Lake Turngaluk's decades-old toxicity. Was one of the soldiers stationed near the lake involved in Martha's murder? Or is a larger conspiracy afoot--one involving the Canadian government? Edie, Sonia, and Derek clamber over the rocky Arctic terrain under the twenty-four-hour summer sun to find Martha's killer, but not without risking their own lives in the pursuit."--Back cover.

The Association Internationale de Recherche sur la Circulation Osseuse, A.R.C.O., was founded in London in December 1989 by a small group of doctors, surgeons and researchers in basic sciences who had been involved for many years in the study of bone circulation and its disorders. They had met several times in Toulouse, during the International Symposia on Bone Circulation held there since 1973 and they wished to carry their contacts further. In founding A.R.C.O., they established as their primary aims the encouragement and furtherance of research, organisation of meetings and promotion of knowledge on the subject. At the present time, the Association has over a hundred members from more than bone tissue twenty countries in Europe, America and Asia. All have the conviction that and its pathology can only be truly known and studied if one has an understanding of its vascular system and the way its circulation functions. This concept, apparently beyond question, has not yet been adopted by all physicians and scientists who are interested in bone. From time to time, one comes across teaching programmes on bone patho logy which make no mention of bone circulation.
