Angol
The fort held. Barely. But the siege is just beginning.
Diwan Rajat Varma's army has ringed the valley with torches, cutting off every escape route. Inside the Natherpur Outpost, Sergeant Major Croft holds command by will alone - the Colonel has resurfaced from his breakdown more dangerous than ever, raving about discipline and volleys while the walls are probed by something far more patient than any human enemy.
Abigail Harding can see what Croft cannot. The raptors are not attacking. They are testing. Probing the defenses piece by piece, like engineers dismantling a machine. And the only person who understands how they think is Croc Sullivan - a fever-racked convict-turned-scout whose loyalty is as uncertain as his survival.
When Croc warns her that the fort is not a stronghold but a trap, Abigail must choose between the Sergeant Major's iron discipline and a dying man's desperate knowledge of the enemy. The raptors will not wait for her to decide.
The second book in The Jurassic Mutiny series is a claustrophobic siege thriller where the walls are closing in from every direction - and the most dangerous predators are the ones who think before they strike.
