Time is running out, and not just for Dr. Minh Tran. In Rhino , the electrifying eco-thriller from Canadian author Paul Smith, desperation propels a young scientist into Hanoi's lethal underworld, where every choice could save a life, or destroy it. Recipient of the Literary Titan Book Award, Rhino delivers a taut, emotionally charged narrative that fuses environmental urgency with the raw stakes of human resilience.

When Linh Tran learns that her father, a respected Vietnamese oncologist, is secretly battling terminal cancer, she launches a desperate search for a cure, one as ancient as it is forbidden. Her quest drags her deep into the shadows of Vietnam's illegal wildlife trade, ensnaring her in a bloody network of poachers, smugglers, and killers trafficking in extinction.

As the bodies mount and evidence disappears, a relentless inspector and a fervent conservationist close in from opposite sides. Stalked by unseen enemies and haunted by impossible choices, Linh is forced to confront the ultimate question: how far would you go to save someone you love?

In its review, Literary Titan praised Rhino as "a powerful and emotionally charged story... bold and uncomfortable in the best way," noting its deft balance of suspense, moral complexity, and intimate human drama. "Smith writes with a quiet force," the review states, "capturing the nuance of human vulnerability without overplaying the drama."

With pacing as relentless as its stakes, Rhino immerses readers in a dangerous game where everyone is both hunter and hunted, and survival means crossing lines that can never be uncrossed.
