The Hasadék Breach

Orsolyzsa Kenderesy deserted her military unit rather than abandon her commanding officer in a cave-in—a choice the army branded as cowardice. Now, she makes her living as a freelance guide in the treacherous Hasadék mountain zone. When a distress call comes from the deepest, most dangerous underground research station on the Hasadék Route, Orsolyzsa is hired to get a rescue team there. The catch: the team is co-led by Dr. Lórágy Folyosy, a brilliant but rigid botanist whose team must share a shoestring budget with a rival geology division. Every step deeper into the cavern system forces Orsolyzsa and Lórágy closer together as they navigate falling rocks, failing stations, and toxic spores. The subterranean journey will strip away their defenses, but the hardest hurdle isn't surviving the depths—it's trusting each other enough to make it out alive.
