As she struggles with painful recovery and uncertainties about leaving a good job to pursue a seemingly impossible pipe dream, her employer hands down “an offer she can’t refuse.” Just two days before their departure date, her boyfriend ends their eight-year relationship.
An accident during a race on the Iditarod Trail results in serious frostbite. But in the tradition of best-laid plans, Jill’s dream starts to unravel the minute she sets it in motion.
