Description: "When journalist India Kane agrees to accompany a Greenpeace ship called Sundancer in its pursuit of a whaling fleet, she has no idea what awaits her. Buffeted by high winds and blinded by freezing fog, by the time they spot the huge tanker bearing down on them - it is simply too late. Eight crewmembers are lost. Ned, one of India's closest friends, is among them. When it emerges that the tanker that rammed Sundancer is unregistered - a kind of ghost ship, untraceable and unaccountable - India is determined to bring the owner of the vessel to justice. India's investigation will take her from the freezing Southern Ocean to the baking outback of Western Australia, where corruption, greed and betrayal go hand in hand." "What she discovers there will take her on a dark journey to a terrifying place."--BOOK JACKET.
