Series: Alex Hunter
When a plane crashes into the Antarctic ice, exposing a massive cave beneath, a rescue and research team is dispatched. Twenty-four hours later, all contact is lost.

Captain Alex Hunter and his highly trained squad of commandos are fast-tracked to the hot zone to find out what went wrong and to follow up the detection of a vast underground reservoir. If the unidentified substance proves to be an energy source, every country in the world will want to know about it.

Once inserted into the cave system, they don’t find any survivors. Primeval hieroglyphs hint at an ancient civilisation, and an ancient danger. Within hours, one of the party will die.

To bring his team out alive, Alex will need every one of his mysterious abilities beneath the dark ice.

Reviews for Beneath The Dark Ice

""When a plane crash blasts through the Antarctic ice, a cavernous primordial world is revealed. A military and scientific team, led by petrobiologist Aimee Weir and Captain Alex Hunter, enters the caves to search for survivors and potential oil reserves. Greig Beck’s first novel keeps the adrenaline pumping as team members are picked off one by one by Russian assassins and a gargantuan shape-shifting creature. Sean Mangan’s unembellished yet commanding performance allows the book’s tension to mount naturally from scientific curiosity to run-for-your-life terror. He deftly employs pauses and silence to amplify the claustrophobic sense of underground entrapment. His measured masculine voice carves the cinematic action sequences into listeners’ minds. Who needs film with audio thrillers this electrifying?"" -- AudioFile Magazine
