About This Book

Two former army aviators join a Major on an Arctic air expedition that becomes a hazardous survival tale when engine trouble and storms strand them in the far north. They face wild predators, hostile human adversaries, and freezing conditions while making perilous landings, hunting for provisions, and exploring strange settlements. A separate submarine-led party pursuing northern mysteries provides parallel danger and occasional intersection with the flyers' journey. Episodes range from cavern explorations and ambushes to a hunt for a hidden treasure city, culminating in a tense push into the polar region that tests the characters' resourcefulness and endurance.
