Midnight

When the sun never sets, there's no place to hide- a gripping new thriller from the internationally bestselling author of Breathless

Olivia needs to get out of London in a hurry. Where could be a better escape than the opposite side of the globe, on a sightseeing cruise to Antarctica, including a stay on the icy continent itself?

At first, it's everything she dreamed of. Majestic icebergs, tantalising glimpses of polar bears, and all under the eerie splendour of a sun that never sets. It's so spectacular, she can swallow her unease at the eccentric behaviour of some of her fellow passengers.

It's not until their first night camping on the peninsula that things start to go wrong. A storm hits, and the boat has a problem, leaving them cut off.

And then they find the first body. And Olivia realises she doesn't know which is more frightening - the most dangerous environment on earth, or the killer hiding in plain sight, waiting to strike again...

About the Author

Amy McCulloch is a Canadian living in London, who fits writing around work as an Editorial Director at one of the UK’s leading children’s publishers. She was bitten by the travel bug at an early age while accompanying her parents on buying trips around the world for their oriental carpet business. It was her love of travel that inspired her to set a novel in a hot, desert location (moving to freezing Ottawa, Canada, where her first winter hit -40 degrees C, might have had something to do with that, too).

She studied Medieval and Old English literature at the University of Toronto. The sequel to The Oathbreaker’s Shadow, The Shadow’s Curse, is available now.
