Perun's Hammer

By Ian Heller

"One of the best books that I've ever read " -Kent Rominger, former Space Shuttle Commander / NASA Chief of the Astronaut Office

What if you received a video showing exactly what happened to Amelia Earhart?

And then more appear. The Battle of the Little Bighorn. The Tulsa Race Massacre. Every detail verifies. Every face matches. No trace of CGI.

Impossible.
At least by any human technology.

Rich Penton has spent his career exposing scandals, corruption, and lies no one else would touch. As host of RECON, a nationally broadcast investigative news program, he thought he'd seen it all.

But nothing prepares him for this.

As his team races to uncover who created the videos and why they were sent, U.S. and Russian intelligence agencies scramble to control the narrative.

Because the videos aren't just showing the past.

They're revealing the future.

When RECON receives footage of Chicago destroyed in the near future, Rich realizes this is no longer a story.

It's a warning.

Now, caught between government pressure, a Russian assassin sent to silence them, and a force no one understands, Rich must decide whether to stay silent or risk everything to stop a catastrophe no one else can see.

Perun's Hammer is a gripping hard science fiction thriller blending first contact, scientific discovery, and high-stakes suspense.

Perfect for fans of Michael Crichton, Andy Weir, Blake Crouch, and Neal Stephenson.
