In a breathtaking debut, Kent Lester has married fast-paced narrative and cutting-edge, reality-based science to produce an edge-of-the-seat thriller in The Seventh Sun.

A seemingly random murder alerts scientist Dan Clifford to a global conspiracy that stretches from the halls of Washington to the Honduran coast. Illegal, undersea activities have unwittingly uncovered a primordial secret that is wreaking havoc on aquatic life and the local human population.
When the CDC and the full resources of a U.S. "threat interdiction" team fails to uncover the source of the devastation, Dan and a brilliant marine biologist, Rachel Sullivan, must race to unravel an unimaginable, ancient mystery in the murky depths. It's up to them to stop this terror before a determined multi-national corporation triggers a worldwide extinction event, the Seventh Sun of ancient myth.

      Lester’s imaginatively plotted if flawed first novel, an eco-thriller, introduces computer scientist Dan Clifford. A genius programmer with a personal bartending robot and a wise Native American mentor, Dan is blindsided by some unethical choices made by the new president of NeuroSys, the Atlanta-based tech company he founded. His investigations and some strong coincidences lead him to the body of geologist Carl Jamison, who perished in Honduras. This, in turn, leads him to Carl’s colleague Rachel Sullivan, a gorgeous marine biologist with a penchant for taking dangerous risks. As Dan and Rachel dig deeper into the mystery of Carl’s death and NeuroSys’s issues, they come across not only corrupt businessmen and politicians but a potential biological threat to all humankind. Lester has a confident voice that works as well for delivering business and technical plot concepts as it does for action sequences, but his characters fail to develop beyond their broad outlines. Agent: Russell Galen, Scovil Galen Literary Agency.
