Synopsis

In remote, icy Greenland, ex-Air Force General Steven Macaulay helps lead an expedition to recover a lost World War II plane. Encased in ice below is a find that will astonish the world—a perfectly-preserved Viking ship, buried for nearly a thousand years, along with the frozen corpses of nine crewmen.Assembling the foremost Viking scholars, Macaulay tasks the gorgeous Lexy Vaughan to translate the ship’s markings—until her work is cut short when her colleagues are murdered. Stranded on a vast landscape of ice, wind and unbearable cold, Lexy and Macaulay are hunted by a secret cult that will go to the end of the earth to hatch an ancient plot of death and world domination.

I really enjoyed this book. I'm not going to state the story line; it is listed with the book in a straight forward way. I'd say that this is guy-lit: lots of action, fast paced and not much on the touchy-feely side. Just enough character development to become attached to the characters or repulsed......more
