The Inuit people call it Akhlut, and legends tell of a horrific monster, a freak of nature from the depths that appears every six years in search of flesh and blood. Mount Aire is a secluded enclave on the Kenai Peninsula where folks do their best to live quiet lives away from the chaos of civilization. The town's peace is shattered when a musher is killed during the annual Terimore 200 sled dog race, and signs of a strange creature are found at the murder scene. Murmurs recalling the year of the beast percolate through town. Six years ago, three died, five the cycle before that. Wildlife Trooper Terry Wyatt had seen and heard it all before. His father and uncle were lost on the lake when he was a boy, and it had been a year of the beast. And it was all happening again. From the author of Crimson Falls, Wolves of the Sea, and The Breach comes a new sea monster thriller filled with murderous creatures lurking in a harsh environment so real you'll come away frostbitten.

Thousands of stolen artifacts flow into the United States each year, every piece of antiquity a part of history with a value beyond the measure of its physical attributes. Collectors, museums, and bastions of higher learning all knowingly or unknowingly participate in the smuggling of these invaluable pieces of the past. In the spirit of joint communication between agencies, international relations, and homeland security, the U.S. Department of Justice created the Antiquities Trafficking Task Force (A.T.T.F.), an elite team of experts charged with confronting this ever-growing problem. These are their stories. Ellis Parker is a maverick A.T.T.F. investigator who's slick as a watermelon seed. A 70s kid that doesn't quite fit in the modern world, though he's adjusting. The disappearance of an innocuous Egyptian artifact from the evidence lockers at the Manhattan District Attorney's Office thrusts Ellis into a globe hopping adventure that could change the course of history. For fans of Dan Brown, James Rollins, and Nick Thacker, comes a groundbreaking new action-adventure series guaranteed to keep you up all night and turning pages.
