Opis

The gripping new Antarctica thriller from the author of "The Secret Chamber"Two kilometers beneath the frozen ice caps of Antarctica lies a lake. It is the only one of its kind, the water unfrozen and perfectly preserved for a quarter of a century. Luca Matthews has been asked by his school friend, MI6 officer, Oliver Bates to lead a British team of scientists to the site to discover what secrets lie trapped below the ice. But Bates has secrets of his own. He tells Luca that the Russian station commander in Antarctica is part of a smuggling ring of weapon's grade uranium coming out of the former Soviet block. All Luca needs to do is insert a memory stick into the main computer so that MI6 can track all communication into and out of the base. Luca isn't so sure. He needs to work out who he can trust and quickly--because if he doesn't get out in just 8 days, there will be no way out, and Luca will be stranded in Antarctica alone.
