****** Disclaimer! This book contains depictions of violence, gore, vulgar language, and *checks notes* the grammar and words of a man who has a habit of writing on his poor computer at 2 in the morning. That being said, it does also contain lemon, if you get that far.****** A mysterious, unknown island appears in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, well into international waters. As the scientific lead of the study- and with years of experience that seem nearly impossible for somebody who appears no older than 22- Victor Moore sets off on a government-funded trip to this island. Joined by his newly hired assistant and several armed soldiers from a country he never learned the name of, he has two weeks to explore an ecosystem that evolved cut off from the rest of the world. That is, until his investigation quickly changes upon the accidental discovery of a species that should, theoretically, be impossible to have evolved.
