Come enjoy an Alaska summer with a stubborn college graduate student and the young Inupiat medico who helps her grow up. Sparks (and sutures) change their lives while working on an archaeological dig in the village of Barrow in 1994.
Was she his Red Raven or just another cheechako, a tenderfoot from the outside world looking for excitement or a news story in his remote Alaskan village?
The trials, frustrations, and richness of life in Barrow (Utqiaģvik), Alaska and the local ‘healer’ change east coast archaeology intern Alexandra Oppenheimer’s philosophy on life in 1994. Twenty-two years later, will the area be the same? And will Rocky have returned to it, too?
