The Abrupt Physics of Dying is the powerful story of Claymore Straker. Set in the 1990s Yemen, Straker is employed by Petro-Tex, a global oil company as a contractor. He is kidnapped, along with his driver friend and forced to investigate his employer. Looking into what is happening with the decline in health of the local population and its links to Petro-Tex. Who can he trust?
In Yemen, the poor are dying. Everything is about money and oil. The oil company operates above the law, complete with bribery and corruption.
The Abrupt Physics of Dying is an impressive début thriller. I couldn’t put this down.
