Hallam Cane, a British engineer, arrives at desolate Cape Agulhas – the southernmost tip of Africa – to lead a geothermal project tasked with building a clean energy generating facility to supply the southern African region. Utilizing a newly discovered inexhaustible source for its power needs.
- But why has the project been beset by so many unexplained accidents, including a suicide and mugging?
- Why is there a Russian diving team nearby trying to salvage the wreck of a ship sunk in 1904?
- Why is the American government prepared to pay handsomely for a barren piece of land that the geothermal facility is supposed to be situated on?
- And does any of it tie into a politically controversial floating natural gas atoll exploration rig set up by the Russians just off the coast?
In an atmosphere of fear and suspicion Cane will struggle to put the pieces together before the threats and danger to his own life have him fatally regretting ever signing on to the endeavor.
"Geoffrey Jenkins has the touch that creates villains and heroes-and even icy heroines-with a few vivid
words." - Liverpool Post
"A style which combines the best of Nevil Shute and Ian Fleming." - Books and Bookman
