Résumé |
Kurt Austin races to Antarctica to stop a chilling plot that imperils the entire planet in the latest novel from the #1 New York Times bestselling grand master of adventure. In the early days of World War II, the infamous German Luftwaffe embarks upon an expedition to Antarctica, hoping to set up a military base to support their goal of world domination. Though the military outpost never comes to fruition, what the Nazis find on the icy continent indeed proves dangerous...and will have implications far into the future. After a former NUMA colleague disappears while researching the icebergs of Antarctica, Kurt Austin and his assistant Joe Zavala head to the freezing edge of the world to investigate. Even as they confront perilous waters and frigid termperatures, they are also up against a terrifying man-made weapon - a fast-growing ice that could usher in a new Ice Age. Pitted against a determined mad man and a monstrous storm, Kurt and the NUMA team must unravel a Nazi-era plot in order to save the globe from a freeze that would bury it once and for all. -- From dust jacket |
