Extended description

What if America was no longer dependent on imported oil?
What if that miracle turned into an unimaginable nightmare?
On the brink of a discovery of unparalleled importance, the world’s leading petroleum scientists are being brutally murdered by a team of assassins led by two brothers who enjoy killing…and are very good at it. Their next target is little-known Oregon professor Ian Savage.
At first the murders go almost unnoticed.

From the steamy jungles of Ecuador to the cold waters of the North Pacific; through a harrowing high-speed chase across the Santiam Pass to the tense climax at Peter’s condo in Bend; Unintended Consequences is an adrenaline-packed thriller. If you enjoy the action of Clive Cussler’s Dirk Pitt adventures and the suspense of James Rollins’ novels, you’ll love the rollercoaster that is Unintended Consequences!
