Takes place in ice-bound Greenland, where a bunch of scientists doing research have cut a frozen girl out of the ice and revived her. The main character is a linguist asked to communicate with her. The setting is vivid and most (not all) of the events in the action-packed plot are believable and exciting.
I was a bit dubious about whether it would take so long for a trained linguist to communicate with someone in an unknown language, but on the whole this was a very worthwhile read. Motivated me to order the author's other books.
