Antarctica 1998
Under the frozen wastes of the Ross Ice Shelf, twin forces lie hidden - forces which will change history forever.
One is a cauldron of magma soon to explode in an unprecedented seismic shock from the lowering presence of Mount Erebus.
The other, a rare isotope which, though it possesses no destructive powers itself, will allow its master to command the deadliest technology known to man.
Soon the peace-loving American and Soviet scientists who discover the isotope are replaced by deadly men of war, special service units intent on securing the find, while the skies are crisscrossed with the vapour trails of jets and the ice cold waters are filled with the looming hulks of nuclear submarines.
Every nerve and muscle and sinew will be tested in the bitter struggle to the death in the mountains and glaciers of the last place on earth... And while the frozen waters boil, Erebus surveys all, waiting for the moment when Man will be as nothing to Nature, and the skies will catch fire.
