1912. Captain Scott and his four companions reach the South Pole to find their Norwegian rival Roald Amundsen has won the race. Defeated, they set out on the 850-mile journey to their ship. Months later, Scott's pitched tent is found, just ten miles from the depot, and the bodies within speak of hunger, the unbearable strain of hauling the sledge, and the brutal winter cold. 1969. Falcon Grey - an orphan brought up at the country estate of the explorer sent to find Scott and his companions - receives a bequest: a notebook that was found in Scott's tent. It is a diary, and it states that they were victims of murder. Falcon goes South to the ice to see it for himself, but someone is desperate to conceal the truth and will kill to keep the secrets under the ice.
