Book Description
"In addition to providing an exciting race-against-the clock mystery, this story also provides a chillingly accurate picture of just how vulnerable our energy system really is." -Neil Latimer, Engineering Consultant with 33 years in the Petroleum Industry Randy Thomas, production manager for Montgomery Oil & Gas, learns from a Homeland Security warning that an unidentified employee of the company is working with a terrorist cell to blow up Montgomery's huge Black Canyon gas plant, in western Colorado. Thomas's boss sends him to Grand Junction to identify and stop the terrorist. He races against time, trying to stop the planned explosion that could cause a major disruption in the western U.S. power grid by halting all natural gas flowing from the Western Slope. Thomas soon confronts the murder of a key plant employee that may be tied to his investigation. He must work with the local western-style sheriff, who likes to run his own show, and a tough-minded but beautiful FBI special agent. Little does Thomas know, however, that his own life is in the sights of the unidentified terrorist. But who will step up and diffuse the situation when a massive bomb is found on the Black Canyon plant property? As the entertaining and action-filled story unfolds, Terror at Black Canyon gives insight into the inner workings of a domestic oil and gas exploration and production company and relates author Gene Zimmerman's understanding of the differences between radical fundamentalist and moderate Muslims.

Sight Lines
Author: Arthur Sze
Publisher: Copper Canyon Press
ISBN: 1619321971
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 70
Book Description
Winner of the 2019 National Book Award “The sight lines in Sze’s 10th collection are just that―imagistic lines strung together by jump-cuts, creating a filmic collage that itself seems to be a portrait of simultaneity.” ―The New York Times From the current phenomenon of drawing calligraphy with water in public parks in China to Thomas Jefferson laying out dinosaur bones on the White House floor, from the last sighting of the axolotl to a man who stops building plutonium triggers, Sight Lines moves through space and time and brings the disparate and divergent into stunning and meaningful focus. In this new work, Arthur Sze employs a wide range of voices—from lichen on a ceiling to a man behind on his rent—and his mythic imagination continually evokes how humans are endangering the planet; yet, balancing rigor with passion, he seizes the significant and luminous and transforms these moments into riveting and enduring poetry. “These new poems are stronger yet and by confronting time head on, may best stand its tests.” ―Lit Hub “The wonders and realities of the world as seen through travel, nature walks, and daily routine bring life to the poems in Sight Lines.” ―Library Journal
