    About this ebook

    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.

      We all learned the cycle of water when we were in grade school. The water is in the ocean. Warm air caused the water to turn into vapor and rise up in the atmosphere, where they become clouds. When the air chills enough, we get rain and the water eventually returns to the ocean. What we didn't learn is just how much water is in this cycle. We have invisible rivers in our upper atmosphere, called atmospheric rivers, which gives us the ARk in the title of this weather thriller. A jihadist plans to use drone technology to seeded a major storm, feed by these atmospheric rivers, to flush California into the ocean. This was a page turner.
    • 5/5
      Meteorologist Doctor Gwen Boudain has researched a method for predicting and controlling the Atmospheric River 1000, a naturally-occurring storm that periodically threatens California. Her boss intends to profit from her work by selling the research to a hostile nation along with a process that will allow those enemies to increase its effect, thereby creating a devastating torrential downpour. What follows is a mile-a-minute, pulse-pounding thriller as Gwen, aided by Navy SEAL-turned newspaper reporter Dan Jacobsen, races to keep the ARk Storm from recreating the Biblical deluge. Highly recommended.
