Gasline (Paperback)

A flash of blue-white light prompts Kat Gaudet, a safety engineer with Spanergy Holdings, to pull over and check out a section of thirty-inch natural gas transmission pipeline crossing Sadler Creek Canyon. At the same time, in Spanergy's Charleston, West Virginia, control center, control technician Len Bergen is reading a programming manual while keeping one eye on an array of monitor screens and waiting for his supervisor to return. Over the next few minutes, an unexpected threat of unknown origin will change the course of their lives and put the entire East Coast in danger. A work of fiction, GASLINE is about real threats and recognized vulnerabilities in our critical energy infrastructure. It is an explosive story of action, intrigue, and friendship that will take you from the hills of Appalachia into a clandestine world of confusing loyalties and global conflict. Kat and Len pursue coded clues and flee pursuers as they try to sort out the good guys from the bad-and survive.
