A Haunting in the Arctic Summary

A Haunting in the Arctic by C.J. Cooke

Something has walked the floors of the Ormen for over a century. Something that craves revenge

*Longlisted for the Wilbur Smith Adventure Writing Prize*

1901. On board the Ormen, a whaling ship battling through the unforgiving North Sea, Nicky Duthie awakes. Attacked and dragged there against her will, its just her and the crew and theyre all owed something only she can give them.

1973. Decades later, when the ship is found still drifting across the ocean, its deserted. Just one body is left on board, his face and feet mutilated, his cabin locked from the inside. Everyone else has vanished.

Now, as urban explorer Dominique travels into the near-permanent darkness of the northernmost tip of Iceland, to the final resting place of the Ormens wreck, shes determined to uncover the ships secrets.

But shes not alone. Something is here with her. And its seeking revenge

Rich, chilling and gorgeously gothic. A Haunting in the Arctic is the kind of enchanting, terrifying mystery I just adore Chris Whitaker

Mesmerising and terrifying, this is a powerful story lovingly told Highly recommended Lisa Ballantyne

A Haunting in the Arctic Reviews

An unnerving tale full of ghosts, selkies and plenty of mystery, which Cooke deploys not only to craft the novels frights but also to probe ideas of grief and retribution. The result is a story that is as haunting as the Ormen itself New York Times
