About this listen

From the acclaimed master of action and suspense. The all time classic.

An airliner crashes in the polar ice-cap. In temperatures 40 degrees below zero, six men and four women survive.

But for the members of a remote scientific research station who rescue them, there are some sinister questions to answer – the first one being, who shot the pilot before the crash?

Written during Alistair Maclean's best period. While this wasn't his best ever plot (the big reveal as to what it was all in aid of was slightly underwhelming), the story was gripping and exceptionally well written, with few plot holes. At his best, this guy could really write!

It's nice to see a classic action-adventure still holding strong in the decades since it was written. Well read, too.
