520    "Cold Storage, Alaska, is a remote fishing outpost where 
       salmonberries sparkle in the morning frost and where you 
       just might catch a King Salmon if you're zen enough to 
       wait for it. Settled in 1935 by Norse fishermen who liked 
       to skinny dip in its natural hot springs, the town enjoyed
       prosperity in the mid-20th Century, at the height of the 
       frozen fish boom. But now the cold storage plant is all 
       but abandoned and the population is shrinking every day. 
       Clive "The Milkman" McCahon returns to his tiny Alaska 
       hometown after a 7-year jail stint for dealing coke. He 
       has a lot to make up to his younger brother, Miles, who 
       has dutifully been taking care of their ailing mother--and,
       really, all of Cold Storage--Miles is a Physician's 
       Assistant and the closest thing to a doctor this side of 
       Sitka. But Clive doesn't realize the trouble he's bringing
       home. He's reformed now, and his dream is to open a bar-
       slash-church (a Cold Storage ordinance requires there to 
       be as many churches in town as there are bars). Clive's 
       vengeful old business partner is hot on his heels, a stick
       -in-the-mud State Trooper is dying to bust Clive for 
       narcotics, and, to complicate everything, Clive might be 
       going insane--lately, he's been hearing animals talking to
       him. Will his arrival in Cold Storage be a breath of fresh
       air for the sleepy, depopulated town? Or will Clive's 
       arrival turn the whole place upside-down?"--|cProvided by
