Praise for FREEZING POINT

..

“Palpably exciting. A scientific thriller about a looming global crisis far more critical than oil. Karen Dionne is the new Michael Crichton.” — New York Times bestselling author David Morrell

“What a ripper of a story! I loved every page.” — New York Times bestselling author Douglas Preston

“a timely, terrifying thriller . . Filled with fascinating science and thorny ethical questions, Freezing Point takes horror to a chilling new degree.” — Dame Magazine

“Dionne is going to be an author to be reckoned with if her debut novel is any indication. A fascinating blend of science fiction and fact, it weaves a great deal of information into a complex story of environmentalism, greed and potential Armageddon. Its ingenious plot, genuine characters, superlative writing and nail-biting suspense will change the way you look at a bottle of water.” — Romantic Times Book Review

“It’s rare to find a book that truly lives up to any “from the first page…” hype, but Karen Dionne’s new scientific thriller Freezing Point opens with a physical tension that, trumping cliche, never lets up. . . . Never pedantic, often fascinating, and always compulsively readable, Dionne’s narrative voice is a uniquely compelling entertainment.” — Crimespree Magazine

“Vivid scenes with worried, dedicated researchers help carry the convoluted plot, which delves into potential ways of dealing with water shortage problems…Dionne has created a thought-provoking tale with unusual aspects of horror; it could easily be converted into a spellbinding movie.” Lansing State Journal

“… the scientific and ethical themes are fascinating and timely and the remoteness of the Antarctic makes an ideal thriller setting … surprisingly complex characters” — Publishers Weekly

“Debut author Karen Dionne has scored a big hit with this timely and compelling thriller that’s riveting from the very first page. The storyline is as disturbing as it is chilling when you think that something like this could actually happen. Characters are compelling and plot development is fast-paced. Be prepared to be fearful of the outcome.”  — Fresh Fiction

“Dionne hits her stride with this heart-thumping, timely thriller, one that rings with surreal authenticity.  All of the right elements — action, suspense, secrets, conspiracies — meld together, the plot built skillfully, like a master craftsman, one layer at a time.   Put simply, it’s a non-stop delight of a read.” — New York Times bestselling author Steve Berry
