The Falklands 1999 - a vital strategic stronghold in the South Atlantic, and a prize gem in the oil-rich Antarctic. For RAF pilot Sean Riever it is a place of ghosts. For Jane Clark, the only female in squadron, a place of tough decisions. An air of menace hangs over the desolate, battle-scarred landscape; present dangers and past mysteries lurk in the shadows on the skyline. And Sean's compulsion to live up to a legendary hero leads him towards a woman whose loneliness matches his own.
