Magic and Mystery of Easter Island Statues at Core of Hair-Raising Expedition in The Trouble with Miracles
Restless for adventure, brilliant botanist Cyd Seeley and former drug addict Dr. Alex Farmer take on an expedition to Chile to investigate the disappearance of a geologist and a strange phenomenon triggered by recent earthquakes: intense lights, possibly coming from a new form of energy, are shooting out of the ground.
No strangers to harrowing adventures, Cyd and Alex are fascinated by the possibility that an ancient civilization may hold the secret to fusion energy — the same energy that powers the sun.
In The Trouble with Miracles, author Stephen Steele takes readers on a thrill ride as Cyd and Alex embark on a desperate race from Chile’s high northern desert to the magic and mystery of Easter Island to keep the secret to fusion energy out of the wrong hands.
The story exposes China’s inexorable drive to control the world’s natural resources and leaves readers to ponder a difficult philosophical question: is man ready to be responsible for an energy source so powerful it can solve air pollution and climate change forever … or will he use it to turn earth to space dust in a heartbeat?
The Trouble with Miracles is the heroic conclusion to Steele’s trilogy by the same name. Each book explores the real-world implications of scientific miracles that are close at hand and could change the course of human events.
Book One, The Cannastar Factor, introduces readers to Cyd and Alex and traces their desperate quest to grow their miracle cure for viruses called Cannastar. Book Two in the series, The Organ Grinder Factor, finds the duo in Africa frantically searching for a place to safely grow Cannastar, where they meet the inventor of a 3D printer that replaces diseased and damaged human organs without the need for surgery.
