Seizing power after a military coup, Indonesia's aggressive new dictator, dubbed 'the Tiger of Asia', has banned all ocean-research ships inside a 200-mile exclusion zone. Threatened by a tottering economy and boiling racial tension at home, he has started to illegally mine the ocean floor. But for what purpose? Nicole Tai-Chung, a young science journalist, is sent from London to find out. She successfully infiltrates the secret oceanographic base, only to find herself in deadly danger as she uncovers the sinister truth. Thereafter, her mission escalates rapidly into a new dimension - a race against time to prevent something wholly terrifying...the world's first environmental war. In this powerful vision of the future, knife-edged action and breath-taking scenarios combine to create a geophysical thriller of shocking proportions.

This review is from: Slide (Paperback)
absolutely brilliant. the plot is more akin to a film than a novel but the narrative is well constructed, keeping the reader in suspense. the character development is also interesting, and the depth of my immersion in the book was profound by the time i was half way through. do yourself a favour and read this book.
