Where The Sleeping Lady Lies

Beschreibung

Where the Sleeping Lady Lies is a science-based thriller that follows 35-year-old ecologist Samantha Rose as she uncovers a deadly conspiracy that could trigger a global catastrophe. When a series of devastating earthquakes ravage Anchorage, Samantha receives a call from her close friend Jackson, a special ops team leader, revealing that several of their mutual friends are missing and presumed dead. But as Samantha arrives in Alaska to attend the funerals, she learns that their disappearance is far from ordinary. Through Jackson's military connections, Samantha discovers a shocking truth: an obscure and dangerous mining company operating in Western Alaska has secured one of the rarest and most radioactive elements in existence. The company is using cutting-edge technology to deliberately trigger earthquakes-an operation led by a ruthless woman from North Korea, who has weaponized this new technology to carry out personal vendettas. As the tremors of this geopolitical and scientific conspiracy spread, Samantha realizes her friends are not dead, but have gone underground to infiltrate the North Korean-backed mining operation. Their mission: to prevent the collapse of the Three Gorges Dam in China, which, if destroyed, would unleash devastation on a global scale. With tensions escalating between the U.S., China, and North Korea, Samantha and Jackson, aided by the FBI, embark on a high-stakes mission to Asia. Racing against the clock to stop a catastrophe that could ignite World War III, they must navigate a web of espionage, technological warfare, and betrayal, all while fighting to rescue their friends from the clutches of a rogue regime. In a pulse-pounding race to prevent disaster, Where the Sleeping Lady Lies explores the destructive potential of science when twisted for personal revenge, the precarious nature of global politics, and the power of friendship in the face of overwhelming odds. Blending science, suspense, and heart-pounding action, Where the Sleeping Lady Lies is a chilling exploration of how far humanity might go when the forces of nature become a weapon-and how hope and resilience can endure even in the face of unthinkable odds.
