Science Fiction

Gwen started life a surfer girl and bikini model that is until her parents were murdered. Gwen then dedicated her life to finishing their project, a way to predict El Nino and deadly Ark Storms.

Gwen notices that the temperatures in South America are rising at an alarming rate and knows she must find funding to continue her work. When she makes contact with an entrepreneurial billionaire Gabriel Messenger he offers her ten million dollars and a job to maintain her project.

Socked and happy she takes the job and works on life changing projects, meets Dan, the man of her dreams and then finds her life and the lives of thousands in danger. Gwen knows a storm is coming, a big one and now she fears that she maybe helping to make it worse.

Gwen and Dan start an investigation to figure out just who and what the deadly plan is. As they are investigating on their own the Counter Terrorist Center and the Security and Exchange Commission are also running investigations to stop thieves and discover what a deadly Islamic terrorist is up to in time to stop it.

The intrigued and danger make ARK STORM an exciting, fast paced read. Linda Davis does her research on Ark Storms and the reader is able to understand the concept behind a real and deadly threat to our nation and others.

Linda Davis ties the different cases and people involved together in a manner that you will enjoy reading. She keeps you guessing until the end and rooting for Gwen, Dan and everyone trying everyday to make our lives and world a safer place. The background, story line and characters just work making ARK STORM a great book and well worth reading.

SUMMARY

The Ark Storm is coming—a catastrophic weather event that will unleash massive floods and wreak more damage on California than the feared “Big One.” One man wants to profit from it. Another wants to harness it to wage jihad on American soil. One woman stands in their way: Dr. Gwen Boudain, a brave and brilliant meteorologist.

When Boudain notices that her climate readings are off the charts, she turns to Gabriel Messenger for research funding. Messenger’s company is working on a program that ionizes water molecules to bring rain on command. Meanwhile, Wall Street suits notice that someone is placing six-month bets on the prospect of an utter apocalypse and begin to investigate. Standing in the shadows is journalist Dan Jacobsen, a former Navy SEAL. War hardened, cynical, and handsome, Jacobsen is a man with his own hidden agenda.

Linda Davies's Ark Storm brings together the worlds of finance, scientific innovation, and terrorism in a fast- paced thrill ride that will leave readers gasping.
