Sinossi

“[An] engrossing blend of romance and gothic mystery. The suspense is well done in a fine story line with plenty of unpredictable twists and turns.” —Midwest Book Review 
 
Damaris Gordon shuddered at the thought of working for the cruel and bitter Master of Blacktower—but her father’s death left her no choice. Suddenly her fate—her life itself—was in the black silk-gloved hands of Gavin Hamilton, a man scarred and tortured by an unspoken past, whose mocking laughter echoes through his ancient Scottish estate. Damaris has heard the whispers that accuse Gavin Hamilton of his wife’s death and his young daughter’s crippling injury. But the pain and sadness barely hidden behind his blazing dark stare touch Damaris deeply—and a courageous heart is luring her to the estate’s topmost tower in search of his dangerous secrets.

    Stranded in the middle of Antarctica, Concordia Station is so far from any point of civilization that it was dubbed "White Mars." 
     
     
     
    But the freezing temperatures and the prolonged isolation aren't the only problems that the crew has to face. When the research team returns with a new specimen discovered deep inside the frozen underground lake, things take a foul turn for the station members. 
     
     
     
    They don't realize how intelligent this lifeform is. They don't realize how long it lay dormant, waiting to be discovered; waiting for its opportunity to leave the ice and infect the world. 
     
     
     
    The choice that the remaining survivors on the station have is simple: stay quarantined with the parasite, or leave and doom humanity.
