Set against the backdrop of 1930, this expedition chronicles the ambitious journey of Henry George Watkins, a young British explorer, as he leads a team into the largely uncharted east coast of Greenland. The mission aims to establish a permanent meteorological base on the icecap, crucial for developing a transpolar air travel route between Europe and North America. The narrative highlights the challenges of exploring a forbidding landscape and the scientific ambitions driving this historic venture.
