An epic underground science fiction thriller of ancient ruins, stolen technology and inhuman terror.
Sometimes it’s safer in the dark.
Deep beneath the mountains of Mexico lies an abandoned underworld, an archaeological wonder larger than anything humanity has ever built. Fleeing with a stolen artefact, Sarah Morgan carries proof of an extinct species capable of extraordinary cultural and scientific advances.
But something distinctly inhuman is hunting her through the abyss.
As Sarah fights to survive, ruthless intelligence director Malcolm Joiner uncovers the truth behind Project Ares. It threatens his authority, the Global Meteor Response Council and the continued existence of the human race.
The secret Sarah carries may never reach the surface.
Genesis is Book Four in the Ancient Origins series, perfect for readers who love Preston & Child, James Rollins and A.G. Riddle, with ancient civilisations, underground exploration and relentless science fiction suspense.

Praise for the Ancient Origins series:
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Comparable to Stephen King and Robert McCammon, this young author puts you through your paces in this science-fiction thriller!
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Yes, science fiction, yes, fantasy, but how far off could it be? Maybe. Just maybe.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Thought-provoking and a bit scary. This could happen to Earth.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Keep up with your favourite characters and villains with this exceptional series.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Robert Storey’s Sanctuary series is one of the best I’ve read.
Writing came relatively late in life, after a car accident and a health condition that left Rob at his home in Kent in the UK, with time to finally start a career he had always dreamed of.
The result was a book called 2040: Revelations. Set on earth in the near future as a huge asteroid neared its inevitable collision. Part of the book was concerned with the political response to the cataclysmic event and part was a startling tale of an archaeological discovery that would turn earth's history upside down.
Both aspects of the story are grounded in real life. Many countries have secret plans for an extinction level event, including secretive underground bunkers. And plenty of archaeologists have discussed the possibility that the ground beneath us still holds many secrets.
With a growing fanbase of readers, Rob wrote and published five further books in the series, renaming them 'Ancient Origins' along the way.
Tragically, while working on books 7 and 8, Rob lost his life. He was just 42 years old.
Today Rob's books are published by Fuse Books in collaboration with Rob's parents Terry and Maureen.
Together they plan to posthumously publish Ancient Origins books 7 and 8.
