From Booklist
It's the stuff of nightmares: being trapped on a disabled ship in the Antarctic Sea with many of the crew dead or injured, a hurricane on the way, and the certainty that a dangerous saboteur is aboard the ship. But the unflappable Richard Mariner isn't fazed. Flown in to help rescue the ship after it sends an SOS, Mariner finds that one of his distant relations, Julie DuFour, has taken command after the death of the captain. The saboteurs have set a series of fires, leaving much of the vessel filled with dangerous inert gases. It's up to Richard to help Julie maintain calm, expose the saboteur, and avert the disaster that could result if the ship goes down, spewing its dangerous cargo into the sea and creating a global environmental disaster. Suspenseful, fast moving, and adrenaline filled, Tonkin's latest Richard Mariner novel will give Sunday sailors and adventure lovers a shot of pure reading pleasure. Emily Melton
