Synopsis

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.
