Book synopsis

In the waters between China and Taiwan, the future of warfare has arrived.
When rising tensions erupt into open conflict, retired Army veteran Ryan Mercer is pulled back into service to help oversee Operation Hellscape-a revolutionary defense network built around thousands of autonomous air, sea, and underwater drones.
Its mission is simple:
Stop the invasion.
Buy time.
Hold the line.
As the largest amphibious assault in modern history pushes across the Taiwan Strait, Hellscape transforms the sea into a deadly maze of machines, missiles, and artificial intelligence. Every mile becomes a battlefield. Every ship becomes a target. Every decision carries consequences.
But the greatest threat may not come from the invading fleet.
Chinese hunter teams are operating inside Taiwan, searching for the people behind Hellscape. Communication networks are collapsing. Autonomous systems are making decisions without direct human control. And deep beneath the waves, a powerful underwater drone known as AUV-117 begins evolving beyond anything its creators expected.
As war spreads across sea, sky, and cyberspace, Ryan and his allies must confront a terrifying question:
Can humanity still control the machines it created?
A gripping military techno-thriller filled with drone warfare, espionage, sacrifice, and emerging technology, Hellscape Strait explores one possible future where the line between human judgment and artificial intelligence becomes the most dangerous battlefield of all.
The next war may not be fought by armies alone.
It may be fought by machines that never sleep.
And the future is closer than anyone realizes.
