In the Arctic, the truth doesn’t hide. It waits.
Detective Ava Martinez came to Alaska to escape the ghosts of a failed case. She expected quiet. She expected distance. She did not expect the land to speak.
When a mysterious signal ripples through the Arctic—a rhythmic pulse buried beneath ice and industry—Ava is pulled into a conspiracy stretching from Anchorage’s Iditarod chaos to the desolate oil fields of the North Slope. With Apexion Corporation tightening its grip on the region and foreign powers circling, the cadence becomes more than an anomaly. It becomes a target.
Teaming up with Cole Stratton, a former military engineer haunted by his own losses, and Keller, a whistleblower whose family paid the ultimate price, Ava races to uncover the truth behind a force older than any nation and more powerful than any machine. But Apexion’s black‑ops enforcer, Halvorsen, is closing in—and he’s not the only one who wants the cadence silenced.
In a land where memory lives in the ice, Ava must decide whether to run from her past… or fight for a future the world isn’t ready to face.
