Description

In this action-packed environmental thriller from the internationally bestselling author of Final Theory, a good-hearted climate activist must stop terrorists from assassinating the worst fossil-fuel tycoons.

Five climate criminals. One assassination plot. One man caught in the middle.

It's Climate Emergency Week in New York City. Thousands of environmentalists are protesting against the ongoing destruction of the planet. Also here are the five fossil-fuel tycoons and reactionary politicians who were labeled 'The Worst Climate Criminals' by Max Mirsky, former editor of the Journal of Climatology.

When Number Five on the list mysteriously dies as Max confronts him, quickly followed by Number Four, Max becomes the FBI's prime suspect. Things then go from bad to worse when his daughter is kidnapped.

Max can't sit back and wait for the FBI to solve the case. He must rescue his daughter and discover who the real assassins are. And he must stop the killings before the outrage and backlash destroy all hopes for a climate-change solution.

What will happen to Max's daughter - and all future generations - if he fails?

An enjoyable book. Max runs a group of performers who sing songs from the musicals but with the lyrics changed to promote the dangers of climate change. During a period of mass demonstrations his daughter is kidnapped. Another group of climate activists start murdering high profile people from a list of worst polluters that Max drew up. Max and the FBI have to stop the murders and save his daughter. It's a fast moving plot and the climate theme doesn't detract from the action.
This is an honest review of a complementary ARC.
