Akiak
EXTINCT IS FOREVER
The human museum of superior power, exceptional evil, and control and capture is ready for visitors. Twenty-five wolf clones stare back with eyes frozen in time. Or at least, that's what Avery expects to find when she walks into the Akiak Museum. Yet the last glass display case is empty. Akiak is nowhere to be found. Did the final wolf of the collection escape somehow?
Biologist Avery has devoted years of study to learning more about the red wolves, witnessing them navigate vast, uncharted wilderness and thrive in hostile conditions by instinct alone. But as these amazing creatures start to quickly disappear—first in isolated pockets, then whole regions, panic settles in. If the wolves are successfully eradicated, which species will vanish next?
While on a mission to save the creatures she loves, Avery comes across the Rufus Link , a groundbreaking translation device that allows her to communicate with the wolves. After listening to their warnings and fears, Avery starts to piece together a sinister plot that threatens to force her out of her comfort zone and into the cutthroat world of politics.
Driven by her lifelong connection to these majestic creatures, Avery refuses to stand by as they are erased from existence. She'll risk her career—and life—to give the last surviving wolf a voice.
