First came the darkness.
Then the storm.
Now Alex has no choice: it's time to face the fire.


Following a fighter jet crash in the Haitian hinterland, special agent Alex Lamarque is taken captive by a violent, drug-addled gang, the only authority in this lawless territory.

Unknown to Alex, his lover Mariam Jordane has escaped the deadly flood of her home valley in the Pyrenees. But Mariam, along with Alex's mother Gloria, is trapped on the wrong side of the world, facing a crescendo of dangers: the AI viruses crippling the digital state; the breakdown of law and order; and unexpected, terrifying news from Paris's 17th century observatory.

Four thousand kilometres to the south, in the remote Sahara, the consequences of the cataclysmic events at the Aswan dam continue to reverberate throughout the world.

And on a frigate in the Caribbean, Alex's boss Claudine Poiret has a troop of well-trained marines ready to rescue Alex - until her own misjudgement causes the destruction of the vessel and the captain's despairing command: 'Abandon ship!'

With the woman he loves presumed dead, his mother in danger, his would-be rescuers stranded, and his own life under imminent threat, Alex must tackle his greatest challenge yet: break free from the gang, uncover the truth, and finally face the perpetrators of the global conspiracy that's seemingly hellbent on destroying the world. Can he - and the people he loves - escape The Coming Fire?
