But tranquility turns to terror when a high-profile investor—famous for his cutthroat business tactics—is found dead in the salt cave therapy room.

From blackmail and corporate espionage to secret identities and a past tragedy someone will kill to keep buried, the peaceful facade of Serenity Springs hides deeply troubled waters. Can Chloe find the killer before the grand opening becomes a permanent closing?

  There is no escape. . . or is there? 
   
   
  The discovery and excavation of a 35,000 year old city hidden deep within the Transantarctic Mountains releases a pandemic across the globe. Within a few weeks 5 million are dead and another 10 million are about to die. Billions more are certain to die within weeks. 
   
  But, what kind of disease only affects members of a certain ethnic group?

  The world has slipped into economic and political chaos, stock markets have crashed and shut down, and lawlessness is on the rise. Radical political and ethnic solutions are considered and implemented.
