Dark Winter

It's the six-month-long night at the South Pole. Howling wind. Killing cold. No possibility of evacuation. And among the tiny group of Pole workers who trust each other with their lives, at least one killer...Dark Winter is the third novel by NY Times bestselling author William Dietrich, and his darkest and most claustrophobic. Based on his own visit to the South Pole and intensive research, it tells the tale through the eyes of Jed Lewis, an Antarctic "newbie" sent to shed light on a small meteorite which, if from Mars, could be worth millions of dollars. When the meteorite disappears, Lewis is accused. When the killings begin, every piece of evidence points to him. He is only one ally, a young woman with her own doubts. And he's caught up in a psychological game in which the stakes are survival...or extinction.
