SPIN: A Science Thriller, Taylor Knox

When the world stops spinning, can one woman’s mind keep it turning?

Dr. Eleanor Thorne, an elite astrophysicist aboard the International Space Observatory, makes a shocking discovery: a solar storm is heading straight for Earth. But that’s just the beginning. When Earth's rotation suddenly grinds to a halt, global chaos erupts—tsunamis ravage coastlines, climates collapse, and humanity faces extinction.

As society teeters on the brink, Eleanor must lead a fractured team of scientists, rebels, and unlikely allies on a desperate mission to uncover the cause. The deeper she digs—from ancient ruins to alien artifacts, secret bunkers to orbital space labs—the more she realizes this may not be a natural disaster at all. Something, or someone, wants Earth silenced.

With time running out, Eleanor must defy political sabotage, confront haunting memories, and trust her instincts in a battle to restart the planet—before it's too late.

Perfect for readers who love The Martian, The Day After Tomorrow, Contact, and The 5th Wave, Spin delivers pulse-pounding action, intellectual intrigue, and a courageous heroine who refuses to give up.
