A century-old secret resurfaces—along with a virus capable of ending the world.
Army epidemiologist Frank Slater faces disgrace until he’s sent to a desolate Alaskan island where permafrost is melting, revealing victims of the 1918 Spanish flu. His mission? Ensure the deadly virus isn’t released again.
But this isn’t just a scientific expedition. The colony once followed Rasputin. A mysterious emerald cross hints at royal secrets. And modern treasure hunters are crashing the mission, unaware they’re awakening something long buried—and possibly not dead.
Slater must race against time, nature, and a ghost-ridden past, aided only by a fierce Inuit woman. Science may not be enough to save them.
What they unearth could reignite a pandemic—or unlock one of history’s darkest mysteries.
Is it already too late?
