Troubled Waters

By Mike Sadava

In the Pacific Ocean off Canada's west coast, Kate Keller's sailboat, the Waterworld, inexplicably disintegrates, leaving her clinging to the mast for her life. This catastrophe was caused by a an out-of control cocktail of bacteria engineered to rid the oceans of plastic.

Meanwhile Esme Berkowicz, an idealistic marine biologist, has taken her dream job on pastoral Blenkinsop Island at the laboratory where the bacteria are being created. But her dream of ridding the oceans of plastic pollution turns into a looming world-wide threat to shipping and all marine transportation.

Both women are dragged into a nightmare that becomes both personal and threatening as the truth behind the lab and the billionaire behind it unfolds.

Behind it all, this eco-thriller poses the big question: Is it possible for humankind engineer its way out of the folly in its abuse of the environment?
