The stones have broken every soul that ever carried one. Every soul but Alex McCray. Now the person he trusts most is holding a stone of his own, and a reason to use it that he has kept secret for years.
They walked away from the fire, but only just, and not without loss. The world blames Alex and his friends for the wreckage left behind, and now they are fugitives, hunted across the country while the man they are truly fighting stays a step ahead of everyone.
Then Scott changes everything. Haunted by something that happened in the six years Alex was gone and presumed dead, Scott takes one of the stones and disappears to settle a debt he has never spoken aloud. The friendship that has always been Alex's anchor starts to come apart, and the power that has already ruined stronger people is now in the hands of the one person Alex could never bring himself to fight.
Rupert Kline has not slowed down. He is richer, more dangerous, and closer than ever to collecting the stones that would let him remake the world in his own image. And half a world away, an ordinary couple, a novelist chasing a Viking legend in Iceland and the engineer she loves, are about to stumble into a war they never knew existed.
Petrichor is the smell of rain on dry ground, the warning that a storm is about to break. It is breaking now.
The stones don't just grant power. They reveal exactly who you are. And the closer this war creeps to the people Alex loves, the more it is going to cost him to protect them.
Petrichor is the third book in The Twelve Stones, a five-book science-fiction saga where the hidden war turns personal and the price of the stones comes due, carrying all the heart, humor, and blockbuster action that has driven the series from a small mountain town toward the fate of the world.
Perfect for readers who love:
- Ordinary heroes and the friends who stand beside them
- Superhuman powers with a devastating personal cost
- Ruthless billionaires, secret wars, and buried alien artifacts
- Fast, cinematic action with a warm, character-driven core
RJ Johnson is a marvelous writer... it felt like I was there with the main characters.
One stone can change a life. Two can change the world. Twelve will decide the fate of us all. Continue the saga today.
