Honeymoon by Fire

di Alison Croft (Autore)

Alison Croft, 2026

Field-hardened volcanologist Maya Albright and her computational geochemist husband, Leo, arrive at the breathtakingly beautiful yet volatile Kawah Ijen caldera in Indonesia, desperate to salvage their fractured marriage. What was meant to be a make-or-break honeymoon swiftly devolves into a waking nightmare when they witness the brutal execution of Arthur Pearson. The killer: Commander Jaxon Cross, a ruthless corporate mercenary dispatched by the shadowy Aethel Geothermal, intent on burying all evidence of illegal, deep-crust tectonic manipulation. Thrust into a desperate race for survival, Maya and Leo must navigate a treacherous landscape of boiling acid lakes, otherworldly electric-blue methane fires, and labyrinthine geothermal tunnels. Their only hope lies in securing Pearson's dropped ruggedized telemetry drive, a device that holds the key to Aethel's sinister agenda. Armed with little more than their geological field gear and their unparalleled scientific knowledge, they must evade Cross's heavily armed tactical strike team, who are methodically hunting them down to ensure Aethel's plan—the intentional triggering of a catastrophic fault-line rupture for profit—remains forever buried beneath the ash. To prevent a manufactured regional catastrophe that could claim millions of lives, the estranged couple must set aside their bitter professional rivalries and learn to trust each other under the most lethal pressure imaginable. Pushed to the very edge of an erupting inferno, they must infiltrate a geothermal citadel, force the mountain to reveal its secrets, and expose Aethel's global conspiracy before the earth and their relentless pursuers swallow them whole.
