A novel by

 
 
After losing both his legs and an arm in a tragic motorbike accident, Alex is desperate. As a last resort, he signs up for illegal experiments in the hope of relieving his pain onboard the secret research vessel, the Cheiron.
Things quickly turn from bad to worse when the shuttle boat turns into a scene from a horror film. Alongside Alex's fellow test subject
Lilou, who lost her eyesight years ago, twitching body bags, screams and inexplicable events in the midst of a storm cause the pair to doubt their sanity.
But that's not all.
Onboard the
Cheiron, the pair quickly learn that there is a serious catch to the research: in order to make progress, Alex and Lilou must die. Over and over again.
What's more, the experiments may cause uncontrollable side-effects. As eerie premonitions and deaths begin to pile up, Alex and Lilou don't have a chance to investigate before the
Cheiron is captured by unknown assailants. At the last moment, the two manage to escape and make it ashore.
For Alex and Lilou, one thing is clear: they need to find and free the kidnapped researchers and test subjects. Their survival depends on it.
But how?
Fortunately, unexpected allies arrive - but can they be trusted?

Meanwhile, the unknown assailants continue their sinister experiments in a Norwegian fjord.
Recklessly.
Brutally and ruthlessly.
With fatal consequences...
