Expect non-stop action and heart-pounding uncertainty
in this icey adventure from Dan Smith!
"It's a genuine page-turner that is a must-read for those
who love fast-paced, scary stories." THE SCHOOL LIBRARIAN
Twelve-year-old Zak, who has an inoperable brain tumour, is with
his sister and parents when their private plane is disastrously
diverted. Wrecked on a remote research outpost in the Antarctic,
they find themselves in an abandoned base.
Then Zak's parents disappear, and the base's equipment starts
3D-printing nightmarish spider-like creatures.
Zak's bizarre visions appear to suggest a link to something else
- beneath the ice - which only he can understand ...
A fresh and exciting no-holds-barred thriller by award-winning
author Dan Smith.
Centres on a trapped creature beneath the icy wasteland
of Antarctica - a discovery unravelled only through non-stop action,
sheer danger and heart-pounding uncertainty.
Environmental and scientific themes underlie a plot which
focuses on a protagonist with a life-threatening illness.
