Plateau Station
If you’re a fan of gripping science-fiction thrillers, my latest novel promises to take you on an exhilarating adventure. From the icy expanses of Antarctica to the lush rainforests of South America, I’ve crafted a story that’s fast-paced, realistic, and thought-provoking.
Six months to impact, six months to save the world > At Plateau Station, an ultra-top-secret research outpost situated in Antarctica, a team of scientists are working on groundbreaking technology buried deep within the ice. When an experimental energy test goes catastrophically wrong, a massive doomsday rock is sent hurtling towards Earth. Promising destruction on a scale humanity has never faced, the world scrambles to stop it. Far from the global spotlight, deep within the Ecuadorian rainforest, Dr Steve Blaire and Rob Sanchez uncover something buried, something ancient, that could save humanity or possibly destroy it. The secrets it holds could rewrite the story of life on Earth. As the clock ticks down, survival will demand impossible choices, fragile alliances, and the courage to face the truth about our planet’s past.
