CRETACEOUS INFERNO
(Updated reprint of Landing Party)
Out now in Kindle Paperback
​A volcano claws its way out of the South Pacific, and four nations race to claim the newborn land. Tonga’s first landing party vanishes. Accusations fly. To prevent a shooting war, the UN sends Expedition GAIA—scientists, medics, and explorers with orders to observe and report.
But the island isn’t just rock and fire. Its crater lake breathes poisonous gas. Its caves glitter with impossible wealth. And under cooling tuff, something ancient stirs.
Cut off from extraction and hunted through lava tubes by creatures that never should have survived, GAIA must solve two mysteries at once: what erased the first team—and how to keep the island’s secret from igniting a geopolitical inferno.
CRETACEOUS INFERNO is a propulsive dino‑disaster thriller where new land is forged in flame, and old nightmares evolve in the dark.​
