Review: Days of Night

Days of Night by Jonathan Stone
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I have always read books by Jonathan Stone. Moving Day was one of my favorites of the six I read. So when this book came out on Kindle Unlimited I quickly downloaded it. But as I read I found it was quite a bit different from his previous books.

I takes place in the Antarctica and while it starts off with a death that Joe Heller, a retired cop, has to investigate - the story covers more than enough information of life in the Antarctica. The cold, the isolation, the long weeks of only nights, the ice and the people living at the station who are scientists who cover living conditions under these terms.

With 157 people there and a killer running around, the story takes a turn as they are cut off from communication with the rest of the world. Was there a catastrophic event that happened to the rest of the world? No way to find out and things start getting heated as thoughts turn to survival and confusion.

While at first I wasn't sure I was liking this book - the more I read, the more things got interesting and I needed to know how the population in Antarctica was going to survive - if at all!
