A Desert of Ice
Synopsis:
An addictive novel, much more than a thriller. Darkness is not the only thing that dwells in the frozen night.
The corpse of geologist Björg Stutgard has appeared at the Norwegian scientific base Nytt Håp, in Antarctica. His naked body has been deposited in the snow, with a huge open wound from his sternum to his pubis. Furthermore, with crude strokes on his belly, someone has written the word "Kripos".
In San Sebastian, Mikel Ibarra, a former criminal investigator, spends his days working as a guide for the scientists at the Norwegian base and as a diver for a company in which he is a partner and which is attempting to patent a diving suit capable of immersions to great depths.
His life is turned upside down when Erika Oblyakov, an agent of Kripos - the Norwegian criminal investigation agency - contacts him to ask him to take part in the Stutgard murder investigation.
