Part of Sigma Force, book 11.5
First published 2016
Seichan and Kowalski board a transatlantic flight as reluctant partners. The two Sigma Force operatives barely tolerate each other under normal circumstances. A mysterious fiery force strikes their aircraft mid-flight and sends it plummeting from the sky. They survive the crash landing on a remote volcanic island with limited resources and growing hostility between them. The only shelter they find is an abandoned resort overrun with bats and an unsettling atmosphere. Their refuge becomes a trap when they discover something terrible lurking on the island. This threat combines cutting-edge science with humanity's most primitive and violent impulses. Seichan and Kowalski must overcome their mutual dislike and pool their combat skills to survive the night. The accidental crash has led them to uncover a weapon unlike anything they have encountered before. Their survival depends on learning to work as a team against an enemy that tests both their physical abilities and their capacity to trust each other.
