Reactor: Science Fiction Thriller
A nuclear disaster strikes Europe…
…but inside the cutting-edge thorium reactor, everything appears normal.
No system failures. No containment breach. Not a single malfunction.
Yet - hospitals overflow with radiation victims. Wildlife drops dead in forests. Trees wither and decay for miles.
Something is poisoning the land—something no sensor can detect. Something that shouldn't exist.
When the IAEA sends specialist investigator Jonathan Beck to the scene, he faces an impossible paradox. The reactor is clean. The science says it's safe. But people are dying.
He isn't alone in the hunt. Dr. Laura Girard, a French physician caught in the contamination zone after her father's radiation death, follows her own trail of lethal anomalies—each one pointing to an invisible threat.
As panic spreads across Europe, both realize time is running out.
If they can't uncover the source of this phantom meltdown before the reactor goes fully online…
…Europe won't be the only continent that burns.
Get it now!

Taut and gripping. Reactor presents a well-written story paced with mystery and action. Tim has clearly done his research in deeply exploring the sci-fi realm. Yet, this novel also delivers a sense of realism in its plausible concepts and themes relevant to today's issues.
Definitely worth a read for any science lover.

An excellent sci-fi thriller/mystery!
Reactor is a sci-fi thriller about the investigation of anomalous radiation present near a new, top of the line nuclear power plant which has yet to start producing power. You won't see this one coming! Overall, 5/5 stars, highly recommended for any fan of science fiction!
