A rascally British Secretary of State for Energy quashes Professor Harry Barnes' attempts to alert the public to the fact that oil drilling at Sidi Tarfu will cause a worldwide catastrophe, which will start with a giant landslide sending a mega-Tsunami towards America's East Coast. With less than six hours to evacuate 70 million people, who will the President save? How can he stop America's enemies taking advantage of the catastrophe?
Kept my interest. Well written. Might read more by this author. If you like male wins end of the world battle and gets not one but two women you will like it.
Taken from today's headlines, this story is frighteningly realistic, at least as far as the science goes. The female characters are rather shallow and stereotyped. The story itself, however, is a great read.
