Anders Nordvelt is promoted to security chief of the night shift on the mining base of Australis. In Antarctica, night lasts for six months, but the world is depending on the oil and coal produced by their small 12-person crew. What seems an easy job becomes increasingly difficult as sabotage and murder threaten the plant and the lives of the remaining crew. Who is guilty, and will any of them survive the long night until rescue arrives?
This book was pretty good. I like how all the different personalities of the crew are described and how they all start to clash after so long cooped up together. I think there should have been more of a description of the world outside the base and of "the company". Hints were made of Anders past that I feel weren't fully explained. But overall it was a good, fast-paced psychological thriller with a bit of sci-fi thrown in.
