Author Creates Fictional Scenario for Global Firestorm The time to
avert ecological disaster is running out, and one scientist and an
alien race may be all that can prevent imminent disaster. Youre
invited into a world on the brink in this action-packed science
fiction thriller Atmospheric carbon dioxide increased 25%, during
the twentieth century, causing the oceans to warm one degree,
resulting in catastrophic hurricanes, followed by bureaucratic
mayhem. With increases in atmospheric oxygen of as little as 4%
during the twenty-first century, the world risks a global disaster.
Alexander Petrov is an inventor turned CEO in the mid twenty 21st
century. His amazing inventions eventually lead him to the
discovery of an alien race known as Andromedans who are living on
earth as scientists and geneticists. These alien visitors are
growing increasingly concerned about the ecological future of their
planet, and their studies show a grim future. Through politics and
petty business trickery, his cousin, Stefano, covertly sells
Alexanders inventions to NASA. Unresolved family issues have caused
a rift between the two cousins, and Alexanders success has made the
bitterness grow even deeper in Stefano. Combining raw intelligence,
aggressive tactics and risk taking, Alexander tries to cope with
his adversaries. Meanwhile, as the conflict between the two cousins
swells, the Andromedan Federation, realizing the global
significance of the growing battle, seizes the opportunity to
colonize the Earth in an attempt to prevent the ensuing mayhem and
impending calamity. A fast-paced, riveting ecological thriller, A
Split Second to Midnight, uses vivid imagery and scientific
speculation to race toward anexciting climax
