"A gripping, high-stakes thriller that sees a race to develop a green energy solution in the face of powerful threats. "
Born in a Storm by Mark Carew is a really interesting thriller. Focusing on the power of the energy industry and the threat to that power and their profits if a free, green, energy solution was found. With involvement and cover-ups reaching the highest echelons of the US government, it’s a race against powerful enemies for the three young physicists, protected by Mackenzie James and Angelina Cohen to develop the clean energy technology.
The flashes between the interview and the action does remove some of the “will they make it” tension, but the plotline is filled with twists and tragedy that still took me by surprise. It’s the stuff of a lot of thrillers where the little guy develops something to help the people, only to find himself targeted by those with wealth and power wanting to protect the status quo. It makes for entertaining reading even when, in our modern political climate, plotlines like these unfortunately sound less and less far-fetched while still delivering on thrills and intrigue. Born in a Storm is a gripping, fast paced story and quite a quick read that would appeal to fans of political and eco-focused thrillers.
