Alaska, 1974. Indómita. Impredecible... Y para una familia en crisis, la prueba definitiva.

Ernt Allbright vuelve de la guerra de Vietnam convertido en un hombre distinto. Incapaz de mantener un trabajo, toma una decisión impulsiva: toda su familia comenzará una nueva vida en la salvaje Alaska, la última frontera.

Con apenas 13 años, su hija Leni ansía encontrar su lugar en el mundo, mientras que su mujer, Cora, estaría dispuesta a cualquier cosa por el hombre al que ama, aunque eso signifique seguirle en su aventura hacia lo desconocido.

En una inhóspita y remota esquina del país, los Allbright encontrarán una pequeña comunidad de hombres aguerridos y mujeres aún más fuertes en la que labrarse un nuevo futuro. Allí, Leni tendrá que madurar muy deprisa, enfrentándose al desafío de una naturaleza desmesurada y cruel, a lo que oculta su propia familia y a la tormentosa relación de sus padres. Pero cuando el invierno llegue y el frío y la oscuridad lo invadan todo, madre e hija descubrirán que, en un entorno hostil, nadie puede salvarte más que tú mismo.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

In Kristin Hannah's The Great Alone, a desperate family seeks a new beginning in the near-isolated wilderness of Alaska only to find that their unpredictable environment is less threatening than the erratic behavior found in human nature.

Alaska, 1974. Ernt Allbright came home from the Vietnam War a changed and volatile man. When he loses yet another job, he makes the impulsive decision to move his wife and daughter north where they will live off the grid in America's last true frontier.

Cora will do anything for the man she loves, even if means following him into the unknown. Thirteen-year-old Leni, caught in the riptide of her parents' passionate, stormy relationship, has little choice but to go along, daring to hope this new land promises her family a better future.

In a wild, remote corner of Alaska, the Allbrights find a fiercely independent community of strong men and even stronger women. The long, sunlit days and the generosity of the locals make up for the newcomers' lack of preparation and dwindling resources.

But as winter approaches and darkness descends, Ernt's fragile mental state deteriorates. Soon the perils outside pale in comparison to threats from within. In their small cabin, covered in snow, blanketed in eighteen hours of night, Leni and her mother learn the terrible truth: they are on their own.
