Witness to Extinction

The first undisputed gravity wave ever recorded is so strong it sets in train a series of events that threaten all life forms. Climate specialist, Eric Jensen assisted by the beautiful investigative reporter, Zona Royale, grapple to make sense of the resultant earthquakes, tsunamis and disastrous volcanic activity that result and which rapidly lead to climate chaos as two further waves are encountered. As the climate heads towards ice age conditions and industry and commerce falter, a religious sect with a sinister cult at its center, grows in power as it feeds on the fear generated by the expected apocalypse and the disorienting effect the gravity waves have on life itself especially the elderly, who cannot adapt to changed reality as time itself is briefly altered. Zona Royale’s daughter is kidnapped as Zona exposes the cult and Eric’s own life is soon in danger as he attempts to rescue them. As the third wave strikes, the earth is poised on the tipping point of what is predicted to be the greatest extinction of life ever to occur.
