The Death Auction

What if the world's most powerful people could put a price on a human life? Every night, somewhere in the darkest corner of the internet, an invitation-only auction takes place. But they aren't selling diamonds, weapons, or priceless artifacts. They are selling death. Twenty-seven-year-old Ethan Cole's ordinary life shatters when he receives a mysterious invitation to The Death Auction—a secret marketplace where billionaires bid millions of dollars on the lives of unsuspecting people. Then Ethan discovers something impossible. His own name is on the list. The opening bid is $10 million. As the bids climb higher, Ethan receives a terrifying phone call from a woman he barely knows—investigative journalist Victoria Laurent. She knows about the auction. She knows Ethan is being hunted. And she knows a secret Ethan could never have imagined. His father, Nathaniel Cole, supposedly dead for fifteen years, may still be alive. But when Nathaniel himself appears as the highest bidder for Ethan's life, Ethan realizes that his past is connected to the mysterious auction. Forced to run for their lives, Ethan and Victoria uncover a conspiracy stretching across billionaires, secret organizations, assassins, hidden identities, and forbidden love. But every answer creates another question. Who created The Death Auction? Why is Ethan worth $100 million? Why does Victoria's past seem connected to Ethan's family? And most terrifying of all... Who will be the final person to place a bid? Because in The Death Auction, everyone has a price. And sometimes... love is the most dangerous bid of all.
