+FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE  
+Oct. 10, 2024  
+
+**Debut Author Publishes Climate Thriller Amid Record Heat**  
+
+*Former glaciologist's novel draws on real Arctic research for plot.*  
+
+NEW YORK -- Dr. Elena Vasquez, a former glaciologist with the National Science Foundation, released her debut novel "Melt Point" on Thursday.  
+
+The book, published by Horizon Press, weaves a thriller narrative around accelerating polar ice loss, incorporating data from Vasquez's fieldwork in Greenland and Svalbard. It arrives as global temperatures hit record highs this summer, according to NASA reports.  
+
+Vasquez left research in 2022 after two decades to focus on writing. "Melt Point" examines how scientists racing to document vanishing ice confront corporate interference and geopolitical tensions, she said.  
+
+The novel has secured distribution through major retailers including Amazon, Barnes & Noble and independent bookstores nationwide. Early reviews from outlets like Kirkus highlight its blend of science and suspense, with one calling it "a wake-up call wrapped in a page-turner."  
+
+"Books like this bridge the gap between dry data and public urgency," said Mark Rivera, executive editor at Horizon Press.  
+
+"Melt Point" is available in hardcover for $27.99, ebook for $14.99 and audiobook narrated by Vasquez. The author will appear at the New York Public Library on Oct. 25 for a reading and Q&A.
