There's Nothing Like Seemingly Dead People Busting out of Ice to Get Your Attention...

Therefore, I thought I'd share a trailer that Bantam Spectra posted for their upcoming book, Blood and Ice, by Robert Masello. I'm not usually a Sci-Fi fan, but what I read gave me some serious chills, which had nothing to do with the book's Arctic setting.

Brief synopsis:

Michael is a listless, depressed writer whose girlfriend has just been involved in a terrible accident (which he blames himself for) and has landed in a coma. One day, his boss hands him an assignment that involves a trip to the cold, far reaches of Antarctica with a team of researchers. While scuba diving in the arctic waters one day (brrrr!), he sees a woman staring right at him--who just happens to be entombed in a block of ice.

After bringing the block of ice, complete with its human cargo, to a lab to be studied, the team discovers that there is not one but two people in the ice! Of course, several questions might arise in your head:

-Why is there a block of ice with two people inside of it?
-Who in the world are/were these people?
-Why, after leaving the lab for a little while, do they discover the block of ice to be melted and for its human cargo to be missing?

This, my friends, is perhaps the biggest question of all, and you'll have to read the book to find out...

ENJOY THE TRAILER!
