I'm looking for the title of a book that I listened to on tape years ago, but I can't locate in search engines or at Amazon. The book is a complex thriller about a US-based company that's set up a base on Antarctica to research it's new Mars probe. While tracking a missing probe, two of the researchers wind up missing. From there, the plot takes us to a small town in northern Scotland where a local journalist is murdered for some investigative work that he was conducting regarding the local nuclear power plant and and Interpol investigation of a suspected art forger. The story culminates with linking the art forger's sponsor to several pieces of artwork that supplemented Picasso's Guernica. We also learn that he sponsor is the head of an international organization that disposes of various hazardous wastes using its secret base on Antarctica. They are also the same people responsible for the missing researchers. I was told that it's part of a series edited by Tom Clancy. Thanks.

Take a look at this site. If it's Tom Clancy, this may help you find it.

I suspect it is "ICE" by Alistair Maclean - but it was set in the Arctic, (north pole) not ANTarctica (the south pole).
