In the Alaska Territory in 1951, two young missionaries worry about how to fight superstition, especially that of one young boy, but a surprise gift of the gospel of Mark translated into Eskimo brings hope. Treacherous journeys and a disturbing newcomer bring high adventure into the lives of missionaries Steve and Liz Bailey and their well-loved dog, Mik-Shrok. New doors open up for them in the challenge of spreading the gospel across the Alaska Territory, but they soon discover that their fiercest battle is for the heart of a boy. - Publisher.
