Slow Apocalypse
Varley John
Despite wars with Iraq
and Afghanistan, as well as 9/11, the United States’ dependence on
foreign oil has kept the nation tied to the Middle East. A scientist has
developed a cure for America’s addiction—a slow-acting virus that feeds
on petroleum, turning it solid. But he didn’t consider that his
contagion of an Iraqi oil field could spread to infect the fuel supply
of the entire world…
In Los Angeles, screenwriter Dave Marshall
heard this scenario from a retired US marine and government insider who
acted as a consultant on Dave’s last film. It sounded as implausible as
many of his scripts, but the reality is much more frightening than
anything he could have envisioned.
An ordinary guy armed with
extraordinary information, Dave hopes his survivor’s instinct will kick
in so he can protect his wife and daughter from the coming apocalypse
that will alter the future of Earth—and humanity…
