Darkness

Beautiful, brilliant Dr Gina Solomon is one of a handful of scientists stationed on a remote island off the Arctic Circle. Out conducting research in the last few days before winter wraps the area in months-long darkness, she witnesses a small plane crash over the Bering Sea, and rescues a survivor from the wreckage - Mal Connolly.

With a snowstorm stranding them unexpectedly, it's at least twenty-four hours before they return to the research station. When they do, Gina is horrified to discover that the rest of her party has been murdered.

Whoever killed the scientists is still on the island, hunting Mal, who is a military weapons expert with a terrible secret. Someone will do anything to stop him from revealing what he knows. And now Gina is in danger too.

With no escape until the plane comes for them the following week, Gina and Mal try to stay one step ahead of the killers, and discover a potent sexual chemistry...

But will they get off the island before they are swallowed up in darkness forever?

BOOM. With that sound everything changes for Dr. Gina Sullivan, a renowned ornithologist working on the remote island of Attu, Alaska. As an everyday outing turns sinister with the onset of one of Attu's infamous storms, the last thing Gina expects is the small jet plane that crashes into the water mere feet from her boat. Even more unprecedented: there's a sole survivor from the crash - James 'Cal' Callahan, he of brooding eyes and muscled frame, and he needs Gina's help. Cal knows the plane crash was no accident. Pushing aside the temptation of the arrestingly beautiful bird-watcher, he convinces Gina to return to base camp and help him escape the island. But when Gina makes it safely back to camp and finds her entire team murdered, all bets are off. As darkness envelops the island, she must decide: trust a man she barely knows, or go it alone and risk running straight into the arms of a killer? 'Exhilarating . . . Edgy and engaging, sexy and suspenseful' USA Today 'Nail-biting suspense and blazing sexual tension . . . Robards grabs the reader by the throat and doesn't let up.' Kirkus Reviews
