'Hooking' section in the book The White Darkness.

One section in the story which is meant to ‘hook’ potential readers is when the group gets stranded. decided to come back from Antarctica. Some of the travelers were getting ill and as they decided to come back from Antarctica, all of a sudden the plane blows up, they have no way to go back. They didn't have anything to call for help as all their satellite telephone ran out of battery. They also lose one of their members as he burns in the plane accident. At this moment as a reader you want to read more and want to know what are they going to do next? You start thinking if uncle Victor is going to continue his work to find the Symme’s hole, if yes then how is he going to travel to the hole and is he going to take everyone with him? As a reader you also start thinking about what those other travelers are going to do to find help. As a reader you want to know if they all survive the cold weather and if yes then how? As a reader you also start wondering what the members of the group are going to do with the things of the dead member who died because of the fire. Can they use it to survive?
