About this listen
An electrifying debut thriller for fans of Lucy Foley and Ruth Ware.
One dead body.
Twelve suspects.
Twenty-four-hour darkness.
In the most inhospitable environment - cut off from the rest of the world - there's a killer on the loose.
A&E doctor Kate North has been knocked out of her orbit by a personal tragedy. So when she's offered the chance to be an emergency replacement at the UN research station in Antarctica, she jumps at the chance. The previous doctor, Jean-Luc, died in a tragic accident while out on the ice.
The move seems an ideal solution for Kate: no one knows about her past; no one is checking up on her. But as total darkness descends for the winter, she begins to suspect that Jean-Luc's death wasn't accidental at all. And the more questions she asks, the more dangerous it becomes for them all....

Absolutely intriguing!
Loved it! Most professional and articulate narration. Reasonably well-impersonated accents. Great driving companion. Must listen!

50 cents each way
Good thriller story with excellent claustrophobic atmosphere but for some reason the main character really annoyed me - too whiny and self absorbed most of the time

What a shame
I really didn’t enjoy this book. Very disappointing and I couldn’t finish it. Pity. Perhaps it was me.
