ABOUT THE BOOK:
When Cryptanalyst John Decker of the FBI is assigned to the Joint Terrorist Task Force in New York, he has no idea he is about to be thrust into a deadly plot of eco-terrorism masterminded by Jihadist El Aqrab, the Scorpion, recently arrested after slaughtering a family in Tel Aviv.

Following the theft of 8 kilos of Highly Enriched Uranium, an ultimatum is issued to the West: Release El Aqrab or a nuclear bomb will be detonated. But, at the last moment, El Aqrab escapes and the Israelis never get the bomb.

Now, only Agent Decker, assisted by brilliant and beautiful oceanographer Emily Swenson, can solve the mystery of the bomb’s unexpected destination – La Palma, in the Canary Island chain. Decker’s convinced that El Aqrab’s real plan is to blow up the Cumbre Vieja volcano in order to set off a mega tsunami.

Decker and Swenson only have six hours to stop El Aqrab, defuse the bomb, and prevent an eighteen-storey wave from annihilating the Eastern Seaboard.


REVIEW:
This book was absolutely riveting. Takes Man's impact on our planet's ecosystems to its logical, most horrifying conclusion. Guaranteed to keep you on the edge of your seat. Fantastic and yet highly plausible. A great read.

Sandom also wrote Gospel Truths and The Hunting Club, plus two young adult novels under the name T.K. Welsh called The Unresolved and Resurrection Men. I've read all of them except for The Hunting Club. According to his website at www.jgsandom.com, he's also coming out with a sequel to Gospel Truths called The God Machine sometime next year.
