As a child, Daniel Stone, the only white boy in a native Eskimo village was teased mercilessly. He fought back, the baddest of the bad kids: stealing, drinking and cheating his way out of the Alaskan bush - where he honed his artistic talent, fell in love with a girl and got her pregnant. Fifteen years later, he is a comic book artist, his wife teaches at a local college and his daughter Trixi is the light of his life. Trixie knows her father only as a mild-mannered man - until, that is, she is date raped... and Daniel finds himself again struggling with an uncontrollable rage that may not just swallow him whole, but destroy his family and his future.
