The Kinetic Bridge

He was a peak physical specimen. She was an expert in human stasis. Together, they are a crime the University can't afford to let out.

Cade Merrick lived for the high-octane rush of downhill racing until a blacked-out SUV sent him over a mountain ledge and into a permanent silence below the waist. Broken, bankrupt, and drowning in a debt to the city's most dangerous loan sharks, his only way out is a "Relational Recovery Study"-a 24/7 monitored residency in a high-tech cage.

Dr. Sola Thorne is a clinical psychologist who prefers data to pulse rates. Tasked by her father, the Dean, to map Cade's "cognitive recalibration," she views him as a subject, not a man. But when she discovers the study is a cover-up for the hit-and-run that paralyzed him, her clinical detachment shatters.

The terms of their lives are about to change.

To clear his debt and her conscience, they must enter a lethal alliance. Cade becomes the getaway driver for an underworld heist in a specially modified interceptor, while Sola becomes his "eye in the sky," hacking the city's infrastructure to guide him through the dark.

As the line between Doctor and Subject dissolves into Pilot and Navigator, they realize they aren't just running from the police-they are racing to dismantle a conspiracy that goes all the way to the top of the University's ivory tower.

In a world of sensors, secrets, and betrayal, they discover the only thing more dangerous than the truth is the Inseparable Bond they've forged in the wreckage.

"A high-stakes fusion of Industrial Noir and Psychological Thriller, exploring the kinetic energy of the human spirit."
