A Max Sterling Adventure – Book Nine
They’ve chased secrets through cathedrals, crypts, and castles—but nothing prepared Max, Chloe, and Nick for the dawn of flight.
Kitty Hawk, 1903. The Wright Brothers are on the brink of changing history forever. But when their blueprints are stolen in a daring raid, the future of aviation and the fate of nations hangs in the balance.
The thief isn’t working alone. Shadowy forces stretch from Paris’s glittering salons to the smoke-choked docks of Norfolk, and Le Milieu the ruthless French underworld has its fingerprints all over the heist. If the plans vanish onto a French Line steamer bound for Europe, the Wrights’ fragile dream will be twisted into a weapon before it ever takes flight.
From firelit warehouses to storm-lashed piers, Max, Chloe, and Nick race against time to outwit smugglers, mobsters, and a rival genius who will stop at nothing to claim the skies.
The chase is on. The future is airborne. And the world’s first war in the air is about to begin.
