A classic thriller from the bestselling master of action and suspense. The atomic submarine Dolphin has impossible orders: to sail beneath the ice floes of the Arctic Ocean, and somehow locate and rescue the men of weather-station Zebra, gutted by fire and drifting with the ice-pack somewhere north of the Arctic Circle. But the orders do not say what the Dolphin will find if she succeeds - that the fire at Ice Station Zebra was sabotage, and that one of the survivors is a killer.

These old books are always fun in how they talk aside from the older social norms.
There aren't enough stars on good reads!
God!
You know how sometimes you've to just stop, catch your breath and stare at absolutely nothing in an attempt to fathom the pure brilliance of something that just happened in a book!? Well, I found myself doing that constantly!
It was so darn gripping, so different from anything I've ever read! The plot, the characters, the twists! Arg! No wonder my mum has a horde of Alistair MacLeans!
The first couple of chapters are a bit slow, but if you stick with it, it will blow.your.mind!!
I can't wait to pick up another one 😋♥️

Disappointing, but kinda captivating ;) Quite ridiculous plot with constant changes. It was a bit of a lazy writing and a poor suspense creation with the protagonist not saying who he is and lying to the reader to be the super smart Scooby-Doo like detective at the end. I kinda liked the theme though.
