Chimneys collapsed. Buildings burned. The ground split open as Britain is rocked without warning, releasing massive devastation and the toxic ash cloud of an erupting volcano. An earthquake or a manufactured weapon? Only one scientist is prepared to answer that question. Lady volcanologist Lettie Gantry discovers the destructive force might have been man-made. But not just any man: a man who would be God over a pure race of humans, even if he has to murder every person on the Earth. With war looming in Europe preventing her every turn, can Lettie stop the madman hell-bent on bringing about genocide? Will he succeed in blackmailing all of Europe into submitting to his demands? Or will Europe willingly join in his plans? Historical detail mixes with fantastic technology and terrifying madness in the third Volcano Lady novel by T.E. MacArthur.
