Artifact

<p><b>In an isolated Alaskan town the local sheriff uncovers a secret lab where generative AI and bioprinting have unleashed something monstrous . .</b> .</p><p>Sheriff Colton Graves prefers the quiet life in Raven's Rest Alaska a remote town accessible only by tunnel and home to a hardy mix of locals and secrets buried in the ice. But when a camel wanders down Main Street-its head grotesquely sprouting a dozen eyes-Colton knows his quiet days are over. The bizarre incident leads him to NovaGen a nearby research facility constructed inside a Cold War bunker buried in the mountains above town. There a trail of blood and eerie silence hints at something far more sinister than an escaped animal experiment.</p><p>With his deputies-the sharp-witted Tali and rookie Ethan-Colton recruits a few trusted locals including the unshakable Marit Tali's sister; the intimidating Grizz Norval; and Edgar Old Red Rydell an aging man plagued by demons from when he worked at the bunker during its covert days.</p><p>Together they investigate the abandoned lab. What begins as a search for missing scientists soon reveals chilling evidence: pools of blood without bodies cryptic warnings left behind a bloody six-fingered handprint and the revelation of a generative AI capable of printing living organisms. As they descend deeper into the lab it becomes clear the answers they seek may come at a terrifying cost-and what was made in the dark may not be content to stay there.</p><p><b> <i>New York Times-</i>bestselling author Jeremy Robinson reclaims his title as one of the best Michael Crichton successors with this harrowing blend of suspense science and survival. <i>Artifact</i> takes readers into a frozen abyss where innovation and nightmares collide.</b></p>
