The Oracle Philon

Something is happening to the weather. Catastrophic events are occurring all over the world. The newly formed Mysterious Artifacts Department (MAD) team is called in to investigate. The events are manmade and deliberately triggered by formulas found in an ancient text written by the scholar Philon. This sets them onto an epic adventure. They soon discover that two groups of terrorists and the United States government all have a working model of a device that produces natural disasters. It works best in parts of the world called Vortices. The Bermuda Triangle is one. There are many more. The team must battle jihadists, white supremacists and time is running out. The use of the weapons has seriously damaged the magnetic field that surrounds the earth. If they can't surmount the impossible odds, the earth will lose the protection of the magnetic field and it could become a wasteland, just like Mars. The four person MAD team is out gunned and undermanned, but never backs down from the fight. They have some secret paranormal powers to aid them. The mystery takes them all over the world in order to stop the device built from the codex called the Oracle Philon.
