(View the first book, Wave, at https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/wave-wil-mara/1100355654?ean=9781429936620.) It’s one year later. One year after a tsunami rose like one of hell’s own demons from the Atlantic Ocean and devastated most of Long Beach Island (LBI) In spite of the determination of all involved to return the island to its former glory, not much has happened. Insurance companies have ignored most of the claims. Property values have plummeted. Lawsuits are going nowhere, and many residents have decided the better choice is to sell for pennies on the dollar and move on. For the CMI Energy Corporation, this presented an irresistible opportunity—a long-awaited chance to build an infrastructure both on the island and out at sea so the corporation could get its hands on those rich deposits of gas and oil sitting at the bottom of the Atlantic. What CMI doesn’t realize is that an overly ambitious executive from one of its main competitors has inserted himself into the situation. Believing that the LBI opportunity rightfully belonged to his company from the start, he’s now overseeing a clandestine sabotage operation that’ll make everything right. And if the residents of LBI—including most of those from the first story—suffer a few more setbacks as a result, that’s life. After all, it’s not as if a second catastrophic disaster could occur … right?
