Drunk and passed out in the bed of a local bar-girl, volcanologist Ian O'Conner fails to sound an alarm that the Indonesian volcano he was sent to monitor, is about to erupt. Thousands of innocent villagers living on the flanks of the volcano died. On the island of La Palma, in the Canary Islands, the Cumbre Vieja volcano is Ian's only chance at redemption; his last chance to regain his self-respect. He sees the signs of a volcano coming awake-the off-gassing, the deformation, the pattern of small earthquakes-all signs of a volcano getting ready to blow. But with his history as a drunken failure, no one believes him. Ian knows that if the La Palma volcano explodes into the Atlantic ocean, the volcanic displacement will start a massive wave-a tsunami-moving across the Atlantic Ocean. Within hours, the giant wave will arrive on America's shores. If Ian fails again, millions of Americans-including the woman he loves-will be swept away. WaveForm, the latest science-thriller from Greg Dahl, is a story of compelling characters facing the uncontrollable forces of nature. WaveForm is a story about ordinary people-a family on vacation at the beach, a beach-town police officer, a Florida widow who loves her home near the shore-and WaveForm is also a story about public officials and their science advisors who put politics ahead of public safety. WaveForm is about a real volcano and a catastrophic eruption, but it is primarily a story about people, characters we know and care about, trying to survive an unimaginable disaster.
