About this listen

An apocalyptic supernova flashes over the South Pole. A mysterious mission sent deep into the Amazon. The story of one family’s struggle to reunite…

Max Carver, a down-on-his-luck truck driver and Army vet, joins a rescue mission into Brazil. The target is a utopian tech village, the Colony, hidden in the rainforest and run by a charismatic genius. Max’s pregnant wife, Talisha Carver, is the NSA analyst who intercepted encrypted Colony messages signaling a mysterious impending event.

Dr. Xin Rou is a Chinese researcher working at the IceCube neutrino experiment at the South Pole. On lucky days a single flash might signal the passage of a ghostly interstellar particle. Suddenly, IceCube’s entire array lights up. A million detectors at once. Which is impossible. The Antarctic sky is clear and calm—but she is already running for the door.

Because the world is about to end. But the mystery just begins...

An amazing story, with fantastic characters. The concepts, plot twists and story arc were truly breathtaking. I purchased this book on recommendation from another author. I am so very impressed and grateful to have encountered this work. Ray Porter has been amazing, even rivaling RC Bray. Matthew Mather was a phenomenal talent and is a great loss to the entire Sci Fi genre. I hope the publishers are able to find a way to continue this series as a tribute to Matthew.
