Polar Vortex by Tom Harper is an engrossing thriller full of adventure, action, mystery, danger, drama, tension, suspense, interesting characters, secrets, high stakes, the arctic wilds, twisty details, and so much more.
This was quite an intriguing story- and as I have mention before, Mr. Harper has a knack for very vivid and 'visual' storytelling. His words come to life before your eyes, drawing you into all the action and holding you tightly in its grasp, right through till the very end.
Happy Reading.

Thank you, Tom Harper!
