Sinopse

Xena and Xander have been looking forward to their vacation in the peaceful country village of Blackslope. But when a huge monster begins to terrorize the town, the young detectives are faced with a mystery that seems impossible to solve.     Sherlock Holmes, Xena and Xander's famous ancestor, investigated the case of a horrible beast in Blackslope, but that was nearly a hundred years ago. It couldn't be the same creature after all this time—could it?

    Murder Beneath the Polar Ice -...

    Under the frozen ceiling of the Arctic Ocean, two divers descend from a Fleet Ballistic Missile submarine to investigate a string of mysterious failures in a classified early-warning system. What they find is not ice and silence, but proof that someone else is hunting in the same waters—and that the smallest miscalculation can trigger catastrophe. 
    The diver known as “Murderer” earned his nickname not for bloodshed, but for calling nuclear weapons what he believed they were. He reveres the fragile chain of life that took billions of years to evolve beneath the sea. Yet in the freezing dark, after an explosion tears his partner apart, he is forced into a confrontation that strips away argument and philosophy. Alone in a jury-rigged minisub, hunted by sonar and shadowed by unseen forces above the ice, he makes a choice that cannot be undone. Now his submarine waits in silence while governments decide what that choice means. 
    The tension in Murder Beneath the Polar Ice does not come from spectacle. It comes from men operating lethal systems in isolation, from misunderstandings that cannot be corrected in time, and from the thin line between defense and escalation. Hayden Howard places you inside a water-filled chamber, inside a damaged diving mask, inside a mind that loves life yet takes it. 
    Hayden Howard published science fiction in magazines including Astounding Science Fiction during the height of Cold War speculation about nuclear strategy and undersea warfare. His fiction often placed individual men inside large military systems, forcing them to confront the human cost of technical decisions. Murder Beneath the Polar Ice reflects that concern with striking clarity, using Arctic isolation and submarine technology as the stage for a deeply personal crisis. Howard’s work stands as part of the era’s sharp, politically aware science fiction—stories that understood how close the world sometimes stood to irreversible error.
