he broke the story. She lived. Now the story has gone global.
When investigative journalist Maya Quinn published Dead Air, she exposed a pattern of industrial accidents in the American workplace that weren't accidents at all. Workers who organized, filed safety complaints, or contacted unions kept dying within seventy-two hours of doing so. She earned a Pulitzer nomination. She also earned a private army of enemies who decided she should not be allowed to publish anything ever again.
Six months later, a North Sea oil platform explodes. Forty-seven men die. A Norwegian safety inspector named Bj rn Eriksson vanishes into corporate detention. A Lagos environmental scientist sends Maya encrypted footage of contractors poisoning the Niger Delta on a schedule. A London derivatives architect leaves a small leather portfolio under a bench at the Tate Modern and walks out of his own life.
The pattern Maya identified in Dead Air was the beachhead. Dark Current is the invasion.
With her security chief Marcus Thompson, her hacker Alex Rivera, an FBI agent risking her career, and a scientist who has spent twelve years documenting environmental warfare, Maya follows a trail from a Brentwood warehouse to an Amsterdam canal house to a research vessel in the Persian Gulf. There she will conduct the most important interview of her career - with a woman who knows everything, and who has been waiting eight days to die.
What Maya learns in that interview will force a choice she has not been trained to make. Whether to publish under her own name. Whether to keep a secret that could cost the lives of people she loves. And whether to find the woman who built the entire structure, before that woman finds her first.
