When a privately funded team of astronomers discover a large asteroid on a trajectory toward earth, their discovery sets civilization on a collision course with the unyielding wheelwork of the universe. The reality of physics, and the time frame from discovery to impact, pushes humanity into an almost impossible race against extinction. Fearing panic, the US government chooses to keep the existence of the asteroid secret until it has launched a mitigation project. However Colton Taylor, the corporate sponsor for the detection program that made the discovery, also knows the truth. Throwing his technological empire into an independent strategy for survival, Taylor believes that Stormhaven's secrets might just give humanity a chance. Unfortunately, implementing his plan will put his knowledge of the looming disaster in the public eye, and the US government sees that as a serious threat to national security. They are willing to go to extraordinary means to contain that risk, but when he pushes out and forms an international alliance against them, the Administration finds hiding the truth is far less important than the fight for survival. Some secrets are far too big to contain. Stormhaven Rising is a visionary look at what happens when crossed purposes collide with hard reality on the precipice of doomsday.
