Opis

University lecturer and former forensic investigator Ed Sampson discovers that an apparent natural disaster was actually caused by a mysterious rogue satellite. When he finds out that the power behind the incident intends to use a new technology to create a space-based weapons system that will permanently alter the world's climate, he is thrown headlong into a nightmare. With investigative teams drawing blanks, and with death stalking him at every turn, Sampson follows the trail to the European Space Agency and a solar furnace high in the Pyrenees. He soon realises that the free world is threatened by a conspiracy so terrifying that even the superpowers must face the prospect of annihilation. Liam McCann's science-fiction thriller takes the reader on a roller-coaster ride and lends itself perfectly to adaptation as a major Hollywood blockbuster.
