The Helios chase

di Edward Branco (Autore)

Edward Branco, 2026

One device can light a village. In the wrong hands, it can be sold to darken the world. In a research station in southern Kenya, Dr. Amara Njoroge and her team have built the Helios cell — a clean-energy prototype small enough to hold in one hand, powerful enough to change who controls energy across the developing world. The international consortium that funded it intends to give the design away. A private broker named Silas Vane intends to auction it to the highest bidder instead — and he has sent two hunters to take it: Odette Marchand, an elegant rival operative who collects beautiful and powerful things, and Kaspar Rehn, a cold mercenary fixer who solves problems with money first and guns second. Standing between them and the future is Scarlett Vale. Government agent, fearless driver, and the worst thing that ever happened to a careful criminal plan, Scarlett takes the stolen cell out of the smoking ruins of the raid and runs — across the Kenyan savanna in her midnight-blue Valtieri Stradale, down the Nile under the shadow of a pursuing launch, over the rooftops of old Cairo, and through an airport where every camera is bought. In Cairo she learns the cell is only half the prize: its ignition key lies hidden at a geothermal research station among the geysers of Rotorua, New Zealand. And in the frozen north of Finland, with Rehn's headlights closing in across the ice roads of Lapland, Scarlett stops running — and builds the trap that will end the chase at a snowbound Baltic port. From African savanna to Egyptian rooftops, from steaming New Zealand geyser fields to a harbour locked in Arctic ice, THE HELIOS CHASE is a globe-spanning adventure of pursuit, nerve, and one woman who never backs down. Ten chapters. Four continents. One hero. Scarlett Vale always wins.
