The Winter Over
The Winter Over | Matthew Iden
4 posts | 8 read | 2 reading | 4 to read
Each winter the crew at the Shackleton South Pole Research Facility faces nine months of isolation, round-the-clock darkness, and one of the most extreme climates on the planet. For thirtysomething mechanical engineer Cass Jennings, Antarctica offers an opportunity to finally escape the guilt of her troubled past and to rebuild her life. But the death of a colleague triggers a series of mysterious incidents that push Cass and the rest of the forty-five-person crew to the limits of their sanity and endurance. Confined and cut off from the outside world, will they work together or turn against one another? As the tension escalates, Cass must find the strength to survive not only a punishing landscape but also an unrelenting menace determined to destroy the station--and everyone in it.

This Antarctic thriller was perfect for some #AudioShoveling after our snowblower refused to start! Well-performed, this isn‘t a hard one to see the real identity of the villain, but as one disaster after another strikes the research facility, it was satisfying to be bundled up and in the elements while listening to descriptions of the landscape, frigid temperatures and people freezing to death!

A quick read & a good thriller. I had no real expectations and was pleasantly surprised.
A crew of staff & scientists hunker down for the 9 month winter at the South Pole, only to be beset with problem after problem. Power grid failures, communication breakdowns, and ultimately trust issues lead to flash points that make or break the crew. Having a couple psychopaths makes things interesting, too.

I don't usually read suspense novels, but this one was a freebie and it's plot intrigued me. Definitely not disappointed!

My only real complaint is that the jumps between characters seems out of place in the beginning because they're few and far between. About halfway through, there's an increase in the jumps and it only adds to the suspense.

This is one of those books that you'll want to re-read to see what you missed! Highly recommended!
