출판사 설명
Terrifying earthquakes are only the prelude to an earth-shattering eruption in this disaster thriller by the acclaimed author of Powerless.
At Yellowstone National Park, earthquake tremors are common. But today, park scientist Tucker Mayfield detects something different: a disturbing new increase in activity and intensity. Lurking beneath the park, earth's largest supervolcano is beginning to awaken . . .
Racing against time, Mayfield mobilizes a team to evacuate all visitors from the park—including his family at the Old Faithful Inn. But when the earthquakes intensify, and the death toll rises, a shockwave of panic spreads across the nation. Troops are deployed and emergency plans are activated. But nothing can stop a natural disaster of this magnitude. When the volcano erupts, doomsday begins—and no one gets out alive . . .

Ripping Good Disaster, Trite Romances
What a great read, for the first two thirds of the book. Then we could concentrate on the drama of the disaster that was unfolding. And it was page turning. But in the last third of the book, the disaster took a back seat to Peyton Place. And so the story petered out into trite romances. Still, it was enjoyable.
