Imagine you are a young woman with a stellar career but an increasing dissatisfaction with life. Imagine that your idea of a remote location is the distance between a taxi rank and a shoe shop.
How do you shrug off your growing ennui? Simple. You apply for the position of cook in the coldest place on earth: Antarctica.Armed with an old cookbook, she attempts to create three-course
meals with no electricity or running water and struggles to defrost meat in sub-zero temperatures. Life in a thin nylon tent in the company of scientists, explorers and eccentrics soon begins
to take on extraordinary dimensions. As 120-kilometre-an-hour winds blow and tensions rise, friendships – and love – are forged in this frozen neighbourhood.
