Sinopsis

Department Z faces its biggest test when the organization is threatened by an enemy on the inside—from the author who sold eighty million books worldwide. 
 
Charles Corliss, son of a murdered agent from Department Z, seems like the perfect recruit for the ultra-secret spy organization. But when things start going seriously wrong, the agents begin to suspect this charming young man is not as loyal as he first seemed. Filled with hate for the organization that allowed the death of his father, Charles begins to sabotage the department as a double agent dedicated to the Communist cause. 
 
“Mr. Creasey realizes that it is the principal business of thrillers to thrill.” —Church Times 
 
“Little appears in the newspapers about the Secret Service, but that little makes anything on the subject probable fiction. Mr. Creasey proves himself worthy of the chance.” —The Times Literary Supplement

    Reissue of the classic tale of adventure and death on a mysterious Arctic island, from the acclaimed master of action and suspense. 
    A converted fishing trawler, Morning Rose carries a movie-making crew across the Barents Sea to isolated Bear Island, well above the Arctic Circle, for some on-location filming, but the script is a secret known only to the producer and screenwriter. 
    En route, members of the movie crew and ship's company begin to die under mysterious circumstances. The crew's doctor, Marlowe, finds himself enmeshed in a violent, multi-layered plot in which very few of the persons aboard are whom they claim to be. 
    Marlowe's efforts to unravel the plot become even more complicated once the movie crew is deposited ashore on Bear Island, beyond the reach of the law or outside help. The murders continue ashore, and Marlowe, who is not what he seems to be either, discovers they may be related to some forgotten events of the Second World War. 
    The best-selling author, Alistair MacLean, takes us on a thrilling adventure in Bear Island, a classic fiction that is a top pick among historical military stories. The action-packed plot, filled with mysterious deaths and a multi-layered conspiracy, is set in the chilling isolation of the Arctic Circle, making it a must-read for all adventure enthusiasts. 
    For fans of Frederick Forsyth (The Veteran), Nevil Shute (A Town Like Alice), Ken Follett (The Armour of Light), Edward Marston (The Railway Detective's Christmas Case), and Eric Ambler (The Mask of Dimitrios).
