Description
';A remarkable piece of forensic deduction.'Margaret Atwood
The internationally-bestselling account of the Franklin's doomed Arctic expedition, and the thrilling scientific investigation that spurred the decades-long hunt for its recoverynow with a new afterword on the discovery of its lost ships: Erebus and Terror.
';Chilling . . . will keep you up nights turning pages.'The Chicago Tribune
In 1845, Sir John Franklin and his men set out to ';penetrate the icy fastness of the north, and to circumnavigate America.' And then they disappeared. The truth about what happened to Franklin's ill-fated Arctic expedition was shrouded in mystery for more than a century.
Then, in 1984, Owen Beattie and his team exhumed two crew members from a burial site in the North for forensic evidence, to shocking results. But the most startling discovery didn't come until 2014, when a team commissioned by the Canadian government uncovered Erebus, the lost ship.
Frozen in Time is a riveting deep dive into one of the most famous shipwrecks of all time, and the team of brilliant scientists that unleashed its secrets from the ice.
