The Killing Ship by Simon Beaufort

The Killing Ship by Simon Beaufort

A group of scientists in the Antarctic face a desperate battle for survival as they are hunted down by hostile intruders.

Having spent the summer conducting fieldwork on stark Livingston Island, marine biologist Andrew Berrister is looking forward to returning to civilization. But his final days in Antarctica take an unexpected turn when it becomes clear that he and his small group of scientists are not alone on the island. Deducing that the intruders are a crew of illegal whalers, the scientists face an increasingly desperate struggle for survival when two members of their shore party disappear and their supplies are deliberately sabotaged.

As Berrister and his remaining companions flee across the treacherous, icy terrain, they are pursued unrelentingly by ruthless killers whose true reasons for being in the Antarctic are darker and more dangerous than the scientists could ever have imagined.

Beaufort, Simon: - Simon Beaufort is a pseudonym for a pair of academics formerly at the University of Cambridge, both now full-time writers. One is an award-winning historian, the other a successful crime writer under the name Susanna Gregory. They are the authors of the highly-acclaimed Sir Geoffrey Mappestone medieval mysteries, as well as two contemporary thrillers, The Murder House and The Killing Ship.
