The Secret Hunters - an elite group of individuals, determined to bring justice to the victims of genocide.Cambodia,1974.After the advance of the Khmer Rouge forces Derek Jacobs to leave Phnom Penh,he swaps the Asia heat for the freezing temperatures of Canada's North West Territories.It is a decision that is to change his life in the most extraordinary way.When the weekly plane arrives on its way to the military's top-secret alert Base,Jacobs brushes against an engineer changing flights and attacks him. Why has he acted so out of character? The man is a complete stranger,yet Jacobs can't shake the belief that he knows him. Jacob's aunt,his only family,has always been silent about his past, but now,mystified by his own inexplicable behaviour,he persuades her to reveal the secrets of his childhood. Jacobs and his family had suffered the horrors of a genocidal death march, during which his mother was brutally abused and murdered.His subsequent quest for revenge and his recruitment into the Secret Hunters pits him against an international Nazi network of the 1990s.He infiltrates an illegal voyage to Antarctica which includes the man from his own nightmare past.For eight of the ten passengers on the Lorelei's final journey,there will be no return from the ice fields.
