In the heart of the Alaskan interior, silence is a survival skill-and Ranger Sarah Miller has mastered it. But when a veteran bush pilot, Elias Thorne, falls out of a storm-lashed sky carrying a secret that topples a multi-billion dollar criminal empire, the silence of the Serrated Basin is shattered by the sound of gunfire.Elias wasn’t supposed to survive the crash. He certainly wasn’t supposed to keep the 'Payday'-a ledger containing the encrypted names of every corrupt official from Juneau to D.C. Now, he’s being hunted by the Ganza Syndicate’s elite mercenaries, and Sarah is the only thing standing between him and a shallow grave in the permafrost.From the burning ruins of an isolated sawmill to a high-stakes showdown on an industrial icebreaker in the Port of Los Angeles, Savage Ground is a relentless, high-octane thriller. In a landscape where the cold can kill as quickly as a bullet, one lawwoman must decide how much she’s willing to sacrifice to protect a man who has nowhere left to fly-and a truth that the world’s most dangerous men are desperate to bury.The ice always melts, but the mountain remains.
