Samenvatting:

Black Carbon

The sky didn't just turn gray; it turned lethal.

When veteran smokejumper Elias Cole drops into the "Devil's Throat"—a localized firestorm in the heart of the Bitterroot Range—he expects a fight against nature. He doesn't expect to find a silent, matte-black object that has survived a high-velocity impact, or the tactical recovery team already on-site with orders to leave no witnesses.

Caught between an encroaching crown fire and a professional hit squad, Elias rescues a young, traumatized survivor named Jackson. But Jackson isn't just a victim; he has been physically altered by the crash, becoming a living conduit for a terrifying geological power. As the mountains themselves begin to hum with an unnatural frequency, Elias realizes the wildfire was no accident—it was a screen for a global conspiracy to tap into the planet's internal resonance.

From the burning ridges of Montana to the frozen high-country of the Sawtooths and the ancient ice of Glacier National Park, Elias and Jackson are hunted across a landscape where the ground is literally shifting beneath their feet. With the Department of Energy's shadow agents closing in and the sky beginning to tear open, Elias must trade his humanity for a power he doesn't understand to protect the only thing that matters: the ground.

In a world where energy has become the ultimate weapon, one man must decide if he is willing to become the circuit to shut the system down.
