✦ Synopsis
Thirty-three miles off the coast of San Clemente, California, a massive, futuristic oil rig called "The City" still burns in the aftermath of a bombing. The owner of the rig, billionaire William Portis, watches and waits...
In this fast-paced third installment of THE RIG trilogy by Steve Rollins, the paths of the surviving characters converge, revealing more of their courage, strengths, and—for some—their utter failings.
Trying to help his injured co-worker, Joy, and desperately seeking their escape, Wes, a marine biologist, and Sheila, a tornado expert, are horrified at what Agent Smith reveals. From a distant vantage point, Agent Garcia is not happy that Smith is talking.
But someone else heard what Agent Smith said, too. Dave, the tech support guy, becomes the man who knows too much...
Commander Dan Lovell is on the Coast Guard cutter that is ordered to stay five miles from the burning rig. When Lovell is forced to obey the orders of FEMA and Homeland Security, his hands are tied, however, he secretly makes a phone call to his niece, a TV reporter.
Now armed with a few grains of the shocking truth from her uncle, Elly Boukhari must go above and beyond her journalist duties to try to pry the full news story out of the one person who knows everything.
The clock is ticking—time is running out as the damaged metal pillars threaten to collapse the rig into the sea. There is only one way off the rig and it is nearly impossible to get access to it.
And now, a hurricane is on the way...and the rig is right in the path of the oncoming superstorm and so is the Coast Guard cutter...
The Rig: Eye of the Hurricane is an adventure thriller trilogy series with great characters, plenty of suspense, danger, and action on the high seas, and cutting-edge political intrigue. Don’t miss this explosive, stunning conclusion!
