An all-too-plausible eco-thriller from the best-selling author of The Second Horseman! >Erin Neal has been living a secluded life in the Arizona desert since the death of his girlfriend and he isnt happy when an oil company executive comes calling. A number of important Saudi oil wells have stopped producing and Erin is the worlds foremost expert in resolving just these kinds of complications. Erin quickly finds himself stuck in the Saudi desert studying a new bacteria with a voracious appetite for oil and an uncanny talent for destroying drilling equipment. It soon becomes clear that if this contagion isnt stopped, it will infiltrate the worlds petroleum reserves, cutting the industrial world off from the energy that provides the heat, food, and transportation necessary for survival. As the threat becomes more real, Erin realizes that theres something eerily familiar about this bacteria. And that it couldnt possibly have evolved on its own. Presented unabridged on 7 CDs.
