Malcolm Kempt worked for years as a criminal defense attorney in the Canadian Arctic. He served clients in some of the coldest, most remote places on the planet. And he saw some horrific crimes.

He channeled that experience into his incredible debut novel, A Gift Before Dying. That centers a ruined investigator trying to get to the truth in the mystery of a young girl's death in a remote Nunavut community.
