A secret buried in the Arctic ice. A secret that could destroy the world.
1944. On the shores of a lake near the Canadian border, a group of atomic scientists gather for a clandestine meeting. The newly started atom bomb project has run into problems, and the only sane option is to abandon it. But one scientist, the brilliant Armenian Lev Petrosian, has other ideas. Ideas too terrifying to share with his colleagues.
More than fifty years later, British scientist Dr Fred Findhorn lands on an unstable Arctic iceberg to recover secret diaries from the wreckage of a Russian military aircraft. An aircraft that also contains the frozen body of Lev Petrosian. But as Findhorn is about to discover, Petrosian's diaries could be the ultimate poisoned chalice. Not only are governments and multinationals willing to kill for them; the secrets they contain could unleash an unimaginable catastrophe.
