From Library Journal
Emma Tooke, chief operations officer for Gulf Stream, a "green" company that harvests energy and food from the sea, is up to her ears in trouble, what with colleagues bribing state environmental officials, eco-terrorists intent on killing and destruction, and failed contract deals. Further, she is saddled with a new environmental manager, Keith Hellman, just as a huge hurricane bears down on Gulf Stream I, the company's main production facility, in the ocean off Melbourne, Fla. Hellman proves his worth when he helps Emma protect the facility against the hurricane and restore it to running order afterward. Together they battle an eco-terrorist from Emma's past as they race to save Gulf Stream I from subtle and overt attacks that could leave it sunk in bankruptcy. Sf writers Gould, who has diving and oil-industry experience, and Mixon, a former corporate environmental officer, have written a real page-turner sure to delight Tom Clancy readers and ecologists alike. Shell out the green for this environmental action thriller. For all public libraries.?Grant A. Fredericksen, Ill. Prairie Dist. P.L., Metamora

From Booklist
Executive Emma Tooke has moved her Gulfstream Company to the forefront for extracting clean energy and sustainable food from the sea. Then the company is attacked by Wild Justice, an extremist ecoterrorist group whose ranks include an old flame of Emma's. The ensuing plot soundly balances villainy, excitement, scientific virtue, misguided but sincere terrorism, dubious government shenanigans, and a rousing force of nature--to wit, a hurricane. If not great, the book is certainly good, and if it is not a book to keep you up all night, it will certainly hold your interest all the way. Moreover, it admirably avoids excessive didacticism, despite its ecoconsciousness, and reads like a novel rather than the first version of a screenplay, although it probably would translate well to the screen.
