The Frozen Deep is a novella written by Wilkie Collins (not to be confused with the play that Wilkie Collins and Charles Dickens collaborated together on). 

The story is centered around an expedition which left from England in search of the Northwest Passage. However, it is about much more than this expedition! Amongst this narrative is a love triangle that culminates into a gripping story and a powerful ending.

I thought this novella was fantastic! I loved the writing style and it kept me engaged from beginning to end. And that ending! Whew – it had me in tears. 

What a great introduction to Wilkie Collins' writing! I definitely want to read more by this author.
