Produktbeschreibung
Mary Campbell, a CIA expert on the refugee crisis, and Sam Bostock, a Navy pilot, struggle with love, End-Times ethics, and a wildly eccentric billionaire in this near-future novel. What would you be willing to do to humanity to save humanity? The oceans are rising, the ice caps are melting, and the world's population is growing increasingly desperate and violent. Billionaire Alexander Mongold convinces the United States to undertake a massive solar geoengineering project, Project Panacea, as a solution to global warming. When the project goes horribly wrong, a back-up U.S. government takes to sea on a handful of refurbished aircraft carriers. Mary and Sam end up on the Ayn, the carrier that is also home to the reclusive and eccentric Mongold. When the billionaire unveils a new and even more radical scheme to save humanity, they are appalled. Is it another horrible miscalculation or the only hope?
