About this listen

The world's most renowned vulcanologist mysteriously disappears after a lecture on geophysical catastrophes. Two policemen are found brutally executed on the steps of London's nearby Albert Hall. Then, Mount St Helen's suddenly and inexplicably erupts in Washington State, leaving a wake of death and destruction.

The new, liberal administration in the White House ignores these apparent coincidences, but the retired Admiral Morgan, former National Security Adviser to the President, and Lt. Jimmy Ramshawe are shocked into action. Only a missile, launched from a nuclear submarine, could have had the power to blow up the volcano. Is this the fabled HAMAS terrorist, Major Ray Kerman, at work again?

Not a bad idea but overly padded

The author gives a lot of time to detail which doesn’t progress the narrative or add depth to the piece, I stuck with the book until the end because it was an interesting idea but you could remove 25%of the book and still have a complete story. I’d have enjoyed it much more if he spent more time storytelling than copy and pasting from war wiki.

The narrator did a good job of bringing the story to life and waded his way through the superfluous military facts and details with stoic determination.
