A forgotten invention. A hidden society. A secret buried beneath the Alps. When historian Margot Dumont discovers a mysterious antique watch in Florence, she has no idea it is the key to one of the most dangerous secrets ever created. The watch once belonged to the Meridian Circle-an ancient society of scientists, inventors, and visionaries who built a machine capable of manipulating the Earth's seismic balance.
Their goal was simple: protect the world from catastrophic earthquakes. But power like that was never meant to fall into the wrong hands. As Margot and investigative journalist Stefan Keller follow a trail of hidden clues across Europe-from historic bookshops and forgotten archives to the depths of the Swiss Alps-they uncover a conspiracy that has been waiting centuries to awaken. Someone else is searching for the Meridian Engine.
And he intends to control it. If activated, the machine could reshape the balance of the planet itself-redirecting earthquakes, altering the forces beneath the Earth, and placing unimaginable power in the hands of a single man. Now Margot must make an impossible choice. Protect the secret. Or risk unleashing a force no one can control. The Meridian Secret is a fast-paced international thriller filled with hidden codes, ancient inventions, and a mystery that stretches across centuries.
Perfect for readers who love the suspense and historical intrigue of novels by Dan Brown, Steve Berry, and James Rollins.
