Overview
After studying in Seattle for five years, Julie returns to the
Alaska territory to begin her career as a public health nurse. She
and her mother had dreamed of the day when Julie, smart Eskimo
herself, would bring both health care and God’s Word to the Eskimo
villiages scattered around Nome. But now Julie’s mother is dead,
and the long treks across the Alaskan wilderness only accentuate
her loneliness. Her discomfort is compounded by Sam Curtiss who
persists in proposing a marriage that Julie fears would end her
career. An outbreak of diptheria banishes such troubles from
Julie’s mind. The only cure lies hundreds of miles away, across the
frozen frontier... the only beacon to pinpoint the blackness, the
lights from rustic cabin windows.
