We are writing with some fabulous news! ICE has been named the Winner in the ACTION/ADVENTURE category of the 2016 Next Generation Indie Book Awards. Congratulations!” Next Generation Indie Book Awards The debut bestseller that has sold more than 400,000 Kindle and paperback versions! ICE! Archaeologist Leah Andrews stumbles upon something inexplicable in southwestern New Mexico: inside a dark … southwestern New Mexico: inside a dark cavern lies an undiscovered, Native American cliff dwelling abandoned for 800 years. While twisting through one of the narrow underground passageways, Leah’s flashlight illuminates the remains of a violent massacre.
Ancient human remains—all slaughtered in a long-ago massacre—cover the cavern floor, along with several brilliantly colored, granite crystals. The rare gems are native to only one place on earth: a frozen mountain range in central Antarctica.
Could Native Americans have traveled to the frozen continent of Antarctica 800 years before the first known human exploration? If so, how? And why?
There’s only one person who can get Leah to those mountains in Antarctica: her estranged husband and climbing guide Jack Hobson.
At their destination, they make a stunning discovery that will change history and science forever. But Leah’s team is far from the only interested party.
As her secret makes its way to the highest levels of government, a race to seize the Russian-claimed Antarctic territory brings the world to the brink of nuclear conflict.

Interesting story line, but several details that were very unrealistic
A bit out there but, a good and fun read
Starts slow but builds well. Good character development.
Novel premise. Will read more from this author.
Really enjoyed the excitement of this book, a little touch of sci fi which I am not a big fan of, but not too much to take away from the story.
Page Turner. Interesting characters, great story. Had to know what was happening next.
Much too strange to be worth reading
I really enjoyed this read and it kept me interested through out. I get the 2nd book right away and read it the next day.
Very creative action adventure story with well developed characters. The story benefits from a range of historical fiction coupled with real time adventure.
Truly out of this world! Loved it!
Wow! Great characters, action packed, fun plot twists!
As someone with a degree in Art and Archaeology, I am well aware archaeology is not a topic that may seem to lend itself to an action-packed thriller, but in Tinto’s hands, it most definitely does. Successfully weaving together history, mountain climbing, political manipulations, aliens and Seals also seems like an impossible stretch, but he manages to do that as well, primarily, I believe because he has a broad range of experience that adds a level of accuracy and credibility. Tinto has said that he tries to write like he is wearing a Go -Pro camera and right from the beginning, he immerses you in the thick of things.
Didn’t care for the language in the story. Didn’t finish. Sorry
Very good read. Looking forward to the next in the series.
Very rarely do I pay for a sequel book, but this story is fantastic. Good job!
Political intrigue both domestic and foreign, main characters married (but separated for several years), a plot that takes the action from New Mexico to Antarctica, and alien installations make for a fast paced adventure read.
little far fetched but a good quick read
This is Kevin’s debut novel and it won’t disappoint action-adventure enthusiasts. After Dr. Leah discovers an abandoned Native American cliff dwelling deep in a cavern, who knew there would be a startling discovery. How did granite crystals found only in Antarctica end up in the dwelling of a people believed to have existed 800 years before?
Dr. Leah knows only her former husband, Jack, has the wherewithal to help her find the source of the crystals. With realistic characters and a riveting plot, this is a super read which will keep you turning the pages. I can’t wait to read the next on in the series!
Fun to read, close to home.
