Book hook

A sci-fi thriller with a heartbeat

Moon Ripper starts aboard a tourist cruise in arctic waters. It's the near future, and the passengers are there to experience a sunrise total eclipse over the ocean.

But an unexplained celestial event during the eclipse quickly escalates into a worldwide battle for the data, for who controls the truth. And who owns the witnesses.

It's written for readers who like hard scientific realism and thriller propulsion without sacrificing human chemistry.
