July 2014. Nine billion LEAP gates power a cleaner planet, lining the pockets of the wealthy few — but decimating the job market, leaving millions without hope.
Holed up in Hofdi House, Iceland, Uma Jakobsdóttir sinks into despair — forever haunted by Ethan’s selfless sacrifice and regretting her decision to have his children. Until she discovers traces of plastic toxins in their bloodstreams, and her pursuit of an environmental panacea returns with a vengeance.
As LEAP deniers fight back, Uma’s mission is complicated by Ethan’s lingering presence wherever she turns. And as a series of gruesome murders threaten to overturn her sanity, Uma can come to only one conclusion: there is more than coincidence at work here.
For Ethan, it seems, death is no barrier to revenge…
About OC Heaton
I write what I love to read - big issue thrillers that are super well researched inside a complex plot full of twists and turns.
The result of the above is The Race Is On Series, an idea I had on a trip to Iceland. The first in the series is called LEAP, which tells the tale of a device which has the power to halt global warming. The ensuing race to control the power of this machine will continue throughout the sequel to LEAP which I’m well on my way to completing. It's called Green Ray and will be published in May 2023.
Just like LEAP, the 2nd book weaves fact with fiction and encompasses events such as the 2009 global financial meltdown, Al Qaeda, a new US President and a cornered CIA; another delightful concoction around which I have constructed another tall, but hopefully credible, tale. Watch this space!
I live in Leeds, UK with the love of my life and our two daughters. It rains a lot in Leeds but that works out well for me - loads of time for research and of course writing!
