Here's a gripping techno-thriller, laced with political intrigue,
in the finest tradition of Tom Clancy and Michael Crichton. Iranian
scientists develop an ingenious plan which is destroying America's
petroleum supply. A coup is underway to overthrow the Iranian
government. The leader of this group has murdered the President of
Iran. China is testing the first of twenty of the largest mobile
machines ever built. These huge moving factories will convert
China's vast soft coal fields into synthetic crude oil. This will
double the carbon dioxide content of the world's air, dooming
millions to death by asphyxiation or drowning. A deaf, crippled
Israeli teenager invents a process to make automotive-grade ethanol
from the air we breathe as its source of raw materials. The CEO of
the world's largest agrichemical corporation enlists the support of
the Deputy Secretary of Energy to help her convince the President
of the United States to commit to developing this Israeli process
to provide fuel for America's vehicles. Follow President Thomas
Garner as he maneuvers his way through these challenges and
opportunities. His solution is brilliant. The geopolitics of the
world will never be the same. ... "Its daring is immediate..".
