Early Reviewers

A pulse beneath the ice. A conspiracy beneath the surface. A detective who can't walk away.

After a case that drained her to the bone, Detective Ava Martinez heads to Alaska for a much needed break. But when a whistleblower collapses at an Arctic summit, Ava is pulled into a deadly conspiracy involving corporate sabotage, foreign operatives, and a mysterious signal pulsing deep within the frozen wilderness.

Teaming up with Cole Stratton - a former military analyst with secrets of his own - Ava uncovers the truth behind the "cadence," a natural Arctic rhythm that powerful forces are racing to weaponize. As black ops teams close in, Ava and Cole are thrust into a relentless chase across Alaska, from the chaos of the Iditarod to the desolation of the North Slope.What begins as a technical anomaly becomes a global threat. What starts as a reluctant detour becomes a fight Ava can't walk away from. And the land itself seems to push back as ancient forces collide with modern ambition.

Perfect for readers who love high stakes geopolitical thrillers, cutting edge science woven into fast paced action, conspiracies with global implications, and emotionally driven protagonists. Fans of Michael Crichton, Tom Clancy, Daniel Suarez, and Blake Crouch will feel right at home.

Ava Martinez returns in a gripping new thriller where technology, nature, and power collide - and the truth is as dangerous as the forces trying to bury it.
