Enter the shadowy world of the Russian military, intelligence agencies and a hired assassin.

Six young Americans from affluent families decide to take a trip to Patomskiy Crater, a peculiar rock formation shrouded in mystery, located in a remote area of south-eastern Siberia. Alarms are raised when they don’t return to the base town of Bodaybo, and when the search teams set out, they find the bodies of four of them in mysterious circumstances.

Eyewitnesses Vin and Mia, scared and helpless, are on the run deep in the jungle trying to escape someone or something.

Vin is the son of James Catt, a powerful American steel and oil tycoon, who is not leaving any stones unturned to ensure the safety of his son.

In a viscous game of ‘cat and mouse’ played out in the treacherous Siberian jungle, Vin and Mia are being followed by clandestine individuals and a retired officer of the Russian military hired by Mr. Catt to save his son. Unaware of this fact, Vin and Mia’s survival depends on who reaches them first.

Review

The book has 80 chapters, too long to read.

The title of the book is an actual place keeping a hidden secret so the title itself is an intriguing.

The most important thing in the life is hope and it becomes more important when your life is in dangerous. When we have nothing, we still have hope which keeps us going even in the toughest hours of our life and that is very well described in the book. 

The book is an interesting read and it could be more interesting if the same cycle did not repeat again and again. The book is from the viewpoint of different people and in different time lines which is really interesting. 

If you love reading thriller books, you should try this book.
