Beschreibung des Verlags

The man lay face down and quiet on the snow for what seemed an eternity. If anybody was watching they might have thought he was already dead. The section of snow where he lay, disturbed by his presence, moved off down the slope and carried him over the edge and into the water. A gurgling splash shattered the perfect silence and sent out a wave across the mirror calm water. The wave moved on, growing smaller and smaller until it became a ripple, then a thought... and then it finally disappeared as if it had never been... just like the man.
Jeremy Gibbs is a successful businessman whose last few deals have established his company as a leader in its field. With success comes the freedom to indulge a lifelong love of travel. When Jeremy and his wife Sophie set off on an extended European holiday, they have no way of knowing that a death on the ice in Greenland, seven hundred years before, had ignited events that would ultimately overtake them... and ravage the world.
The story begins in the cold, deep trenches of the Arctic Ocean, and takes the reader around the world, as Gibbs struggles to maintain his grip on reality. Readers travel from the wide open spaces of northern Ontario through the crowded streets of New York City and on to the renaissance cities of Florence and Venice, as the plot twists and turns and the mystery deepens. From the tepid waters of the Greek Islands, to the calm chill of the Baltic Sea, the reader is drawn into a plot that touches down briefly but tragically on a cast of characters that engender either sympathy or disgust. Finally, at a tiny church on a hill in Sweden, Jeremy Gibbs is forced to confront the truth. But what is the truth?
Donʼt sleep, donʼt dream... donʼt dare.
