Produktinformationen zu „Kilowatt (ePub)“

Kilowatt tells the story of Reb Morgan and Alice Carpenter, journalists from a small community radio station in the mountains of northern California, who embark upon a perilous journey into the very heart of corporate America. EnerTex, a Texas-based energy company with close ties to the White House, claims to have discovered a revolutionary process for generating electricity that is both environmentally "clean" and affordable. But they refuse to reveal the details of this new technology under the pretense that to do so would threaten national security. Has EnerTex successfully found a way to address the world's pressing energy needs and avoid global warming? Or have they, instead, opened a veritable Pandora's box that could endanger the future beyond imagining? As Reb and Alice pursue their investigation, they encounter a brilliant but troubled physicist, a former colonel with Soviet Special Forces, a Texas oil man, an ambitious "deal originator," a populist radio commentator, a high-level GOP "fixer," the director of an energy watchdog group, a ruthless gang of Russian mobsters, and Avery Jordan Axton, the enigmatic president and CEO of EnerTex.

Autoren-Porträt von Joe Mchugh

Joe McHugh is a storyteller and a fiddler. He is also a writer, public speaker, and radio journalist/producer. His fiction and non-fiction books cover a wide range of subjects from the energy industry and our troubled relationship with time to how the mediums of storytelling shape how we think and act. He has compiled two collections of American humor and folktales and written a memoir about his family's very special relationship with an African-American woman and an illustrated children's book about lighthouses and the early days of aviation. As a young man in 1970, Joe traveled to the mountains of West Virginia where he purchased an eighty-acre farm and set about raising organic vegetables and draft horses. Soon afterwards, he got into a dispute with the local power company and lived for the next four years without electricity. Ever since he has been fascinated with the conflict between the benefits of technology and the needs of the human soul. Kilowatt is his first novel.
