Blowout!
by Thomas N. Scortia Frank M. RobinsonIn the early years of the twenty-first century, forced by a wave of terrorism to find an alternative to air travel, the United States government is building the world's longest tunnel to accommodate a high-speed bullet train. The crucial eastern leg of the tunnel is nearing completion in the dead of winter, under Lake Michigan. The men working below the icy waters don't know they are using phony geological data. Their bosses do. The bosses have gotten away with it before, at the cost of many lives. And, to maintain the contract for the most impressive construction project in history, they are willing to risk fines again. Dane Nordlund, chief engineer for the project, doesn't know about the phony data. He's also unaware that the brother of a victim of an earlier tunnel collapse is on his crew and bent on revenge. If that weren't enough, he's got an eager beaver assistant conniving to get his job, a bitter ex-wife conspiring for his downfall, and a political opportunist, an inspector from Washington, wreaking havoc with his ability to get the job completed on deadline. The hole-through turns into a political and media circus right before the maniac strikes. A huge explosion rocks the tunnel, killing hundreds and trapping Nordlund and seven others underground. The killer is down there with them, still determined to get even. Yard by yard, against insuperable odds, Nordlund leads the survivors through an underground maze. While Nordlund stays one step ahead of the avenger, he must place all hope for his escape in the hands of his assistant, a man who can only profit from Nordlund's loss. Slowly bleeding to death but refusing to die until he extracts total retribution, the madman stalks Nordlund's band, picking them off one by one. As poisonous gas rises behind them, Nordlund leads his charges to a rendezvous under the deteriorating escape hatch that might let them out...if his assistant has calculated right. And if they don't drown first. From its first shattering scene beneath New York's East River to the explosive finale under the freezing waters of Lake Michigan, Bfawout! is breakneck entertainment at its most compelling. Read it and you'll never take a tunnel for granted again.
