<p><i>Strange things done in the midnight sun . . . Ready for romance and adventure, two sisters take summer jobs as live-in waitresses on the edge of the Arctic Circle. The big-city girls soon learn that the Klondike still exists, and that everyone at the Hotel Beringia seems to have a hidden agenda.</i></p><p>An outpost on the remote Dempster Highway, Hotel Beringia is a popular stop for truckers, highway workers, adventurous tourists and scientists, serviced by staff who are all trying to get away from something. It&#8217;s the late 1980s and everyone wants a piece of the Arctic, whether or not it&#8217;s theirs to take.</p><p>Working in the busy restaurant under a sun that never sets, sisters Rumer and Charlotte each find romance in the midst of intrigue. When Charlotte vanishes with her unsuitable lover, Rumer is the only &#8220;Klondike geisha&#8221; around and begins to wonder whether her attractive scientist is as honourable as he appears.</p><p><i>Hotel Beringia</i> is at once mystery and comedy, set in the Yukon during a pivotal time for the role of women in the North and the drive to exploit the riches of the Arctic and its peoples.</p>
