Product Description
A science fiction mystery full of action, adventure and romance.
Dr. Mark Turner, a scientist with a double Ph.D. in Oceanographic Seismology and Physics, will take you on this epic science fiction adventure. Will he make the ultimate sacrifice to save the world, or is it even possible?
While doing research on the unusual occurrences in the Bermuda Triangle, he will uncover something that the government is willing to kill for. Getting more than he bargained for, his discoveries will not only unlock the mysteries of the Devil's Triangle, the Mayan doomsday predictions about the year 2012, and what happened to the lost city of Atlantis, and fall in love in the process.
Much of the story line has been taken from real science and terrifying real scientific research and discoveries and will keep you guessing on every page. Are we standing on the precipice of a disaster of our own making? The countdown to 2012 has begun.
Excerpt:
Deep below the Mississippi Valley, an even larger eddie spit out an electromagnetic ejection that traveled up through the channel between the highly magnetic, indigenous rock formations of the Reelfoot Rift, setting off an earthquake larger that the magnitude eight earthquake of 1812, whose violence shook against the solid bedrock all the way to the east coast. Blasts of sand blew up in great out gassings, like mud volcanoes and created a sudden dam on the Mississippi River causing it to run backwards before overflowing its banks. The electromagnetic energy surge passed through the atmosphere and out into space where it collided with the magnetic field of the incoming coronal mass. The resulting magnetic reconnection was so powerful that it created an electromagnetic pulse high above the atmosphere, pushing down on the magnetosphere, it traveled south towards the equator convulsing through land, air and sea, followed quickly by the mass of plasma itself.
Starvation, and disease were becoming the norm. Violence and anarchy reigned, while flies fed upon the bodies of the unburied dead. Everywhere was death, dying and sorrow. Earthquakes shook the ground with an ever increasing frequency, across the entire continent, making most of the large cities unsafe for human habitation. Constant, unseasonable storms of tremendous force plagued the homeless millions who had escaped alive.
The explosive impact of the asteroid into the water created a mega tsunami over 2,000 feet high that traveled out in every direction hitting all the surrounding coastlines, including Japan, North and South Korea, Russia and even some lower parts of China. It traveled inland more than 60 miles in some places with explosive force, and engulfed large parts of Japan while completely swallowing North and South Korea before receding. It hit flash-melted large quantities of methane hydrates that had been trapped in the fast ice of the sea floor. Bubbling to the surface, and into the atmosphere with eruptive force. The methane gas, mixed with the massive amounts of vaporized sea water, dramatically changed the atmospheric pressure and created a hurricane sized storm within hours. Nebulous, methane clouds circulated among those made of water vapor and passed over parts of Mainland China and Russia. Random bolts of lightning ignited fiery balls of flaming methane gas and acid rain poured down mixed with methane hailstones; ice that burned in the air and on the ground.
