About this listen

The destruction of the International Space Station and the discovery of an ancient scroll are inextricably intertwined in this debut crossover thriller from a former Navy helicopter pilot.

The International Space Station suddenly loses contact with Earth. When a NASA tech devises a way to restore the feed, the images that come through are unfathomable: a scene of terrible violence, the crew unresponsive, droplets of blood hovering in zero gravity. But which of the astronauts on board would have done such a thing? And why?

Off the coast of Mozambique, former special ops pilot and current treasure hunter Ethan Cain sees something he can’t believe: an object shot out of the heavens plunging deep into the Indian Ocean. When he goes to investigate, it becomes even less intelligible. A space capsule has crashed into the sea, and inside is a woman—alone, unconscious, and injured. Ethan knows he must save her. What he doesn’t know is who she is, how she got there . . . or why she’s the only survivor of a killing spree conducted 254 miles up in the sky.

Critic Reviews

“Ryan Pote’s Blood and Treasure is the must-read debut thriller of 2025. Evoking equal parts Clive Cussler and Tom Clancy, this novel is high-speed, high-stakes, and relentlessly entertaining.”—Mark Greaney, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Midnight Black

“A superbly crafted story of action and secrets that is as imaginative as it is compelling. Take a breath, hang on, and enjoy.”—Steve Berry, New York Times bestselling author of The Medici Return

"An adrenaline-fueled thriller of the first order, Blood and Treasure blazes with action and intrigue in a harrowing chase for history’s greatest artifact."—Dirk Cussler, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Clive Cussler The Corsican Shadow

“Blood and Treasure has it all–tactical accuracy, globe-trotting locales, a touch of history, and a hero who’s a mix of Indiana Jones and Jason Bourne–it’s a sure-fire page turner that’ll keep you awake long after bedtime."—Brad Taylor, New York Times bestselling author of the Pike Logan Series

“Blood and Treasure slams the throttle to the fire wall in this gut-punching, white-knuckled techno-thriller ride in a big adventure that catapults from the cold void of space to the deserts of the ancient prophets. Piloted by several fresh and original characters, Ryan Pote’s debut novel pushes the story’s airframe to its max in a series of rivet-busting plot twists more harrowing than an Immelmann turn in a helicopter. Strap in, hold on, and grit your teeth as you careen toward the sudden impact of the climactic ending.”—Mike Maden, New York Times bestselling author of Clive Cussler Ghost Soldier
