'A thoroughly professional cliff-hanger' Sunday Telegraph
‘Tense, terrifying, moves at a breathless pace’ Daily Express
A classic thriller from the bestselling master of action and suspense.
The atomic submarine Dolphin has impossible orders: to sail beneath the ice floes of the Arctic Ocean, and somehow locate and rescue the men of weather-station Zebra, gutted by fire and drifting with the ice-pack somewhere north of the Arctic Circle.
But the orders do not say what the Dolphin will find if she succeeds - that the fire at Ice Station Zebra was sabotage, and that one of the survivors is a killer.
Alistair MacLean's Ice Station Zebra is a thrilling blend of military fiction and technological adventure, cementing its place as a top classic in the genre of war thrillers. The suspense of the Dolphin's mission under the Arctic ice and the shocking discovery of sabotage at the weather-station make this a must-read.
For fans of Frederick Forsyth (Avenger), Nevil Shute (A Town Like Alice), Ken Follett (The Armour of Light), Edward Marston (The Railway Detective's Christmas Case), and Eric Ambler (The Mask of Dimitrios).
