Synopsis:

In a polar region there is a continual deposition of ice . . . Earth's rotation . . . produces centrifugal momentum . . . this will displace the polar regions toward the equator.
--Albert Einstein, 1953

There will be upheavals in the Arctic and Antarctic . . . There will be shifting then of the poles . . . What is the coastline now of many a land will be the bed of the ocean . . .
--Edgar Cayce, The Sleeping Prophet, 1934

A hunk of ice a mile-and-a-half-thick and as big as Mexico could slide off the Antarctic continent and end the world as we know it . . . How do you relocate four billion people? How do you feed them with every port in the world destroyed? Famine, chaos, and war would follow. We're talking about the Apocalypse here.
--Seth Peterson, 2002

Seth who?

Reclusive polar ice researcher, Seth Peterson, has located a doomsday fault, which could allow the West Antarctic Ice Sheet to slide off the continent and flood coastal cities, ending the world as we know it. Millions of people worldwide would perish in the resulting chaos and famine.

This knowledge--and his heroics at a fateful traffic accident--puts Seth reluctantly under the scrutiny of media, law enforcement, and a band of environmental extremists desperate to make an obscure, overdue prophecy come true. Their cataclysmic objective seems terrifyingly believable to Seth--as does their plan to exterminate him, the only living witness to their scheme.

In fear for his life, Seth escapes to the icy shores of a Minnesota lake, where he must confront these extremists in order to prevent a potential disaster.
