Robert Spire

When eminent climatologist Dr. Dale Stanton - in the process of studying the Atlantic Ocean's thermohaline circulation - is found dead in his London apartment, environmental lawyer Robert Spire is given the task of administering a large legacy left to global warming organizations. The job is straightforward until a second climatologist, Dr. Jack Bannister, drops dead on the other side of the Atlantic.

Siberia, 1908: A massive explosion occurs above the Tunguska region - known as the Tunguska Event - releasing the equivalent energy of 185 Hiroshima nuclear bombs. An asteroid impact or comet fragment is thought to have been the cause. It happened then, and it will happen again.... Wales, UK - When a blue whale gets washed ashore and dies in front of Robert Spire on his local beach, the UK's Department of the Environment is ill-prepared. When a second whale washes up dead on Myrtle Beach on the opposite side of the Atlantic, the scientific community realizes a mystery is on its hands.

A mysterious structure is found buried beneath the Antarctic ice. Undiscovered for decades...it should have remained that way. A team of climatologists are sent on a routine expedition to Antarctica to investigate a rapidly melting glacier, where they make a startling discovery. In Europe, a secret Nazi document surfaces which points to a historical government secret, and which appears connected to events unfolding in Antarctica. Robert Spire, tasked to hunt for the secret document, soon becomes the hunted, as he is chased across Europe.

Robert Spire is thrust into an archeological adventure and a search for a ancient relic - an object of immense technological power - missing since historical times. It must be found at all costs, and time is running out...A sinister and powerful group of terrorists are also searching for the ancient artifact however, and will stop at nothing to get it, no matter what the cost...
