Flanqué de l'inspecteur Apputiku, Qaanaaq va mener l'enquête au pays des chamans, des chasseurs de phoques et du froid assassin. Il remontera peut-être ainsi jusqu'au secret de ses origines, à la source de ses démons. La neige omniprésente, les icebergs à la dérive, la lumière crépusculaire : la vie au Groenland semble paisible. Pourtant, passée la blancheur virginale de ces paysages, les tensions entre autochtones et colons ainsi que la dangerosité immanente au lieu menacent.

Dans le vaste pays blanc, l'esprit de Nanook se réveille. Le grand ours polaire, seigneur des lieux, protégera les siens jusqu'au bout. Adopté à l'âge de trois ans, Qaanaaq Adriensen n'a jamais remis les pieds sur sa terre natale, le Groenland. C'est à contrecœur que ce redoutable enquêteur de Copenhague accepte d'aller aider la police locale, démunie devant ce qui s'annonce comme la plus grande affaire criminelle du pays : quatre ouvriers de plateformes pétrolières ont été retrouvés, le corps déchiqueté. Les blessures semblent caractéristiques d'une attaque d'ours polaire.

Que peut le meilleur des flics quand une enquête en vient à ébranler sa raison ? Sous la beauté impassible des paysages du Groenland couvent les passions les plus noires.

Cela fait pourtant sept mois qu’il officie sur la grande île blanche, comme chef de la police locale. En compagnie de son adjoint, l’Inuit Apputiku Kalakek, il trompe son ennui en jouant à la roulette groenlandaise. Jusqu’au jour où, dans la baie touristique de Diskø, un cadavre est retrouvé, figé dans la glace d’un iceberg.
