The Prometheus Agenda

Justin Prescott is about to receive his engineering degree
and begin work for the Nutronics Corporation, owned by his godfather and close
family friend Nathan Bainbridge-and in which his father, Philip Prescott, has
been the top man in R and D. During a Thanksgiving outing to their cabin in Placer
County, California, Philip has a
car accident, his body is washed by the river, and he is presumed dead. Soon, we learn that Philip has been working
on The Prometheus Project, a cyclotron emissions accelerator prototype designed
for a petroleum company. But the
Prometheus has also been secretly promised to the Pentagon by Nathan, in spite
of Philip's objections. In addition, it
is coveted by a foreign thief dealing in
industrial espionage who has attempted to blackmail Philip and have him help
him steal the prototype. Now, it is up to
young Justin to discover the deceit pulled on his father as well as to stop both
the Nutronics Corporation from building the Prometheus and the foreign thief from
stealing it. A tightly-knit thriller with great characters and several plot
twists to keep the reader interested. A
true page-turner.
