Very surprising to find out from the other reviews that this is the author's first novel. I'll be eager to read her following ones.
It was an engaging read from start to finish, but being familiar with this genre, I was expecting a bit more in terms of plot and reveal. The cabin fever effect of the characters being locked in Antartica would be a great avenue to go down to, but unfortunately it seems underdeveloped for me (and explained in the end in a very convenient way).
