In The Tradition of The Andromeda Strain, "Swift and Relentless. A True Thriller."-Clive Cussler Sunstroke

the long version

Sunstroke by David Kagan must be made into a block-buster movie right now, because it tells the story of what could actually happen when California's PG&E's space solar power satellite project starts converting the sun's rays into high-intensity microwaves (like in your micro oven) and beams them down to earth for electricity. In the book, this giant satellite is sabotaged by the oil cartel, causing the satellite to wander along its orbit, and fry everything-plants animals and people- into crispy critters. Only science could create a nightmare of such terrifying proportions. Only one scientist can stop it.
