Catalyst for Collapse - Paperback

by Harry Stoddart (Author)

The official story says everything is under control. The glowing water says otherwise.

Journalist Karoline Reinhardt travels to Colombia to investigate a protest at a cutting-edge carbon capture site, expecting corporate spin, political tension, and a fight over land. She does not expect glowing water, dead hikers, and signs that something far more dangerous is moving beneath the official story.

Her sister, Dr. Sabine Reinhardt, is trying to step away from catastrophic systems and the damage they leave behind. But when Karoline is nearly killed and the evidence points toward a concealed environmental threat, Sabine is pulled back into a world of fractured data, hidden networks, and impossible choices.

What begins as an environmental mystery soon points to something far worse: a system built on concealment, a landscape pushed past its limits, and a mass-casualty event already beginning to unfold.

In a world of greenwashed promises, hidden networks, and deadly consequences, Sabine and Karoline must uncover the truth before the body count rises and the official story hardens into catastrophe.

For readers who like their thrillers smart, urgent, and unsettling, Catalyst for Collapse is a gripping techno-thriller of environmental collapse, corporate deception, and the dangerous line between control and stewardship.
