Gerard lands on Spitsbergen to visit the Global seed vault. He poses as Doctor Hamid Büchler of the Leibniz-institute, delivering frozen seeds. But in reality the contents of his cabin trunk are highly explosive. What's his secret mission? Can he stay out of the UN's clutches long enough to complete it, or will he fall for the charm of the white blonde Doctor Kaia Hansen?

This exciting and poetic techno thriller was nominated for the Paul Harland Prize 2008. The judges commented: "A beautifully formulated indictment, wrapped in science fiction, against political abuse of power".
