Publisher's summary

The arctic night is endless. The fear is numbing. Screams freeze in the throat. Death arrives in shades of white. And cold-blooded murder seems right at home.

Conducting a strange and urgent experiment on the Arctic icefield, a team of scientists has planted sixty powerful explosive charges that will detonate at midnight. Before they can withdraw to the safety of their base camp, a shattering tidal wave breaks loose the ice on which they are working. Now they are hopelessly marooned on an iceberg during a violent winter storm. The bombs beneath them are buried irretrievably deep...and ticking. And they discover that one of them is an assassin with a mission of his own.

Dissppointed

I generally like Dean Koontz books but this was a waste of time! It seemed to offer a promise of substamce, but that was never delivered. Don't waste credits money or time because it's not worth it.

Awesome and suspenseful!!!!

What an adventure!! Thoroughly enjoyed this book. The tongue in cheek humor was right on target in knowing the characters. This would make a great movie .I’ll be listening more Dean Koontz Thanks

An exciting and gripping tale.

I found myself transported to a floating iceberg that was on the verge of exploding! The description and details made the experience feel real.
My only criticism would be the unnecessary presence of an assassin. Including an assassin in the story distracted from the tense drama that was unfolding.
The diversion caused by the assassin was like watching a movie and receiving a phone call just as the tension was coming to a peak.

Better narrator needed

Narrator was too monotone...no change in tone at all. Also needs to work on accents/voice changes to indicate change of character.

was not the best Koontz

Took me almost an hour of listening before I could get into this book. I kept waiting for the excitement to start.
