MAN ON ICE an action-packed, high-octane thriller (The Rake Ozenna Thrillers Book 1)

Overview
ICE COLD. RED HOT ACTION

A remote Alaskan island. A brutal winter storm. A Russian invasion the world didn’t see coming.

Special Agent Rake Ozenna is used to the cold. Born and raised on the jagged rocks of Little Diomede, he knows the Bering Strait better than any man alive.

But when a fleet of Russian military helicopters screams out of the fog, Rake realizes the ice is about to run red.

What starts as a desperate medical emergency spirals into a terrifying geopolitical standoff. The Russians aren’t here to help. They’re here to seize American soil.

ONE MAN STANDS IN THEIR WAY.

Trapped between two superpowers on the brink of World War III, Rake must wage a one-man war across the frozen wilderness. No backup. No heat. No room for error.

If he fails, the border isn't the only thing that collapses — the future of the United States goes with it.

A gripping thriller full of action, intrigue, and heart-pounding suspense. Fans of Lee Child, Vince Flynn, Brad Thor, Mark Greaney, and Mark Dawson won’t want to miss this.

WHY READERS ARE
THE A claustrophobic, sub-zero battlefield where the weather is as lethal as the enemy.
THE Rake Ozenna — a man of few words, dry humor, and a lethal sense of justice.
THE High-octane action meets terrifyingly plausible global politics.
