Apparently he's been there for at least fifty years. Who is he? How did he get there? Where was he from? In this clever little whodunit, bestselling children's author Eric Walters joins forces with expert photographer Kevin Spreekmeester to present an unusual combination of intrigue and interaction. What's known about the Iceman is that he was a photographer. Along with his body, the authorities recover several cameras, one of which contains exposed film that when developed reveals a clutch of nature photos from across Canada. With the aid of these tantalizing clues, some cryptic notebook jottings, and a secret code, the idea is to decipher the puzzle and solve the mystery. An exercise in latitude and longitude complete with map for plotting and suggestions for Web sites to find out more about some of Canada's natural wonders make this book an experience to remember. |
