Cretaceous Canyon
by Deborah Sheldon
Genre: Horror, Action, Adventure, Dinosaur Lost World
Australia’s
outback hides a mysterious canyon. Hidden deep within is a forest of
pine tree that dates from the Cretaceous Period. A megacorporation
sends in a team of experts to research this canyon for botanical
riches.
The
expedition enters a no-man’s land formed 100 million years ago when
Australia was still attached to Antarctica, and dinosaurs ruled the
super-continent. But the canyon has more prehistoric and dangerous
species than anyone could have possibly imagined.
Trapped
and terrified, unarmed and unable to communicate topside, the team’s
extraction deadline is six long hours away.
The
frantic race for survival is on.
