Darkness Falls
by
Kyle Mills
Erin Neal has
been living a secluded life in the
Arizona desert since the death of his
girlfriend and he isn't happy when an
oil company executive appears on his
doorstep. A number of important Saudi
oil wells have stopped producing and
Erin is the world's foremost expert in
analyzing and preventing oil field
disasters.
As far as he's concerned, though, he
left that world behind long ago–not his
problem. Unfortunately, Homeland
Security sees things differently. Erin
quickly finds himself stuck in the Saudi
desert studying a new bacteria with a
voracious appetite for oil and an
uncanny ability to corrode drilling
equipment. Worst of all is its ability
to spread.
It soon becomes clear that if this
contagion isn't stopped, it will
infiltrate the planet's petroleum
reserves and cut the industrial world
off from the energy that provides the
heat, food, and transportation necessary
for survival. As the scale of the coming
disaster continues to grow, Erin
realizes that there's something eerily
familiar about this bacteria. And that
it couldn't possibly have evolved on its
own…

quotient: Sky high."-

large scale thriller

As a matter of fact, he

the world."
