Black Ice

Black Ice sends Scot Harvath to Norway for what should be an overdue vacation, but when he spots someone he is certain he killed years before stepping out of a taxi in Oslo, the vacation ends before it begins. The pursuit takes him above the Arctic Circle into extreme terrain against a well-resourced enemy in the novel Thor has described as his most intense thriller, a claim the relentless Arctic sequences support.

Armand Schultz brings the novel's physical brutality to life with a sustained intensity that makes the cold and isolation genuinely oppressive. His Harvath in these extreme circumstances is stripped of the professional confidence that usually defines him, and Schultz conveys the underlying determination with a quiet ferocity that makes the survival sequences memorable in audio format.
