A Scotsman and his crew search the ice for a ghost ship off the frozen
coast of Antarctica in this chilling adventure novel. Isvik has been
swallowed by the ice. It sits on the lip of Antarctica, its masts
severed, its helmsman frozen to the wheel. Two hundred years old—at
least—it’s an impossible vessel, a ghost ship, and before its
secrets are revealed, it will cause more men to die . . . The
description of Isvik is found in the pocket of a scientist whose plane
crashed on the Antarctic ice shelf. No one can be sure of the ship’s
location—or if it even exists—but wealthy Scotsman Iain Ward is
determined to find it. So desperate for adventure he’s willing to
die for it, Ward funds an expedition to search for the craft. When
Peter Kettil joins the trek to test his mettle against the terrors of
Antarctica, the sailor and expert in the preservation of wood will see
firsthand just how deadly obsession can be. A high-seas adventure
story in the tradition of Ice Station Zebra, Isvik explores the
horrible mysteries that lie beneath Antarctica’s eternal ice.
