Description
When geologist Dr. Fred Sager transferred to the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory, he thought it was too good to be true...he was right. Almost immediately, the project he was assigned to turned into a living nightmare when he stumbles upon an unusual plan by the military, under the Clinton administration, that could bring about mass death and destruction if allowed to proceed. Fred and his boss embark on a dangerous field trip on the island ́s active volcano when a freak storm sends Fred on an unlikely journey. It is during that time that he learns the truth. Upon his return, he is determined to prevent the government from unleashing the terrible consequences of their diabolical plan. But how? Fred´s own disdain for the government certainly tends to get in his way. He works for the same government as the military, but how can he over-ride Washington DC? His new sweetheart says she can help. If true, she ́s not been completely honest with Fred about her past.
