Cryostasis takes place in 1968 on a nuclear ice breaker called the
North Wind, which has become shipwrecked near the North Pole. The main
character, Alexander Nesterov is a Russian meteorologist who must
investigate what happened onboard the ship. But he’s not alone and the
North Wind is now plagued by dead crewmen who have undergone a bizarre
metamorphosis due to the effects of the incredibly cold climate.
Alexander must try to unravel the mystery of the ship captain’s death
and discover whether it was the cold or, possibly, something far more
sinister…
