'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 (The Veteran), Nevil Shute (Pastoral), Ken Follett (The Armour of Light), Edward Marston (Murder on the Marmora), and Eric Ambler (Journey into Fear).
