Churning, spewing boiling lava, a volcano rises with unnatural speed from the ocean floor -- the source of a new mineral that promises clean, limitless nuclear power.\u003cbr\u003e\nIt continues in hot spots around the globe: Hawaii, where a secessionist movement is about to turn violent and the American army may be asked to fire on U.S. citizens; Washington, D.C., where the subway system becomes the site of a running gun battle; the Far East, where disrupted diplomatic negotiations jeopardize world peace; a rogue Russian submarine, circling the infant volcano.\u003cbr\u003e\nCaught in the middle is Philip Mercer, a geologist and a one-time commando with shady contacts in all the right (or is it wrong?) places. When Mercer learns that the daughter of an old friend is being kept under armed guard in a local hospital, he vows to rescue her, not knowing that this is the first step in unraveling the fantastic secrets of Vulcan's Forge.\u003cbr\u003e\n      From the Inside Flap      \u003cbr\u003e\nDuring the Cold War, the Soviet Union detonated a nuclear bomb on the ocean floor, creating a volcano that would take decades to rise to the surface. Now, two hundred miles off the Hawaiian coast, an island is forming that holds unimaginable wealth and power for those who control it. Al the fight to claim the island rages from the ahlls of power to t the depths of the ocean, Phillip Mercer must fight a battle against both man and nature to bring the world back from the edge of destruction.\u003cbr\u003e\n      About the Author      \u003cbr\u003e\nJack Du Brul is a graduate of the Westminster School and George Washington University. Trying to add as much adventure to his life as he does to his novels, Du Brul has climbed Masada at noon, swam in the Arctic Ocean off Point Barrow, explored war-torn Eritrea, camped in Greenland, and was gnawed on by piranhas in the Amazon River. He collects zeppelin memorabilia and when not writing or traveling (25 countries and counting), he can be found in a favorite chair with a book and a brandy. Jack Du Brul lives in Burlington, Vermont.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780451412102\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.7 x 4.0 x 1.2 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50209561510192,"sku":"Trans_9780451412102","price":525.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/71Dpduz7HpL.jpg?v=1760163683","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/vulcans-forge-a-suspense-thriller-onyx-novel","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
