Dead Men

The discovery of Captain Scott`s body in the Antarctic in November 1912 started a global obsession with him as a man and an explorer. But one mystery remains – why did he and his companions spend their last ten days in a tent only 11 miles from the safety of a depot that promised food and shelter? Birdie Bowers, a notoriously secretive painter, is a woman with a dead man`s name. Her parents were fascinated by her relative, Henry `Birdie` Bowers, one of Scott`s companions. And a hundred years after his death, she is determined to discover what really happened to him. On her way to an exhibition of things recovered from Scott`s tent, she collapses, and is rescued by Adam, who falls in love with her, and agrees to travel with her to the Antarctic to discover the site of Scott`s tent, and the resting place of the man she was named after, now under 30 metres of ice. Dead Men tells the story of two paths. One is a tragic journey of exploration on the world`s coldest continent, the other one of present-day passion. Dead Men explores the weight of the past and the redemptive power of love.
