Back in 2005, a German economist called Dr. Schmetterling drinks a lot of stout in an Irish pub in Berlin. Improbably, his night on the "black stuff" results in Germany taking action that provokes the Euro currency crisis. The crisis gets so bad that, a few years in the future from now, the European Union (EU) is reformed such that Germany dominates all member states from a new EU headquarters in Berlin. EU Police officers (EUPOs) with Draconian powers menace the people of all EU states. Ireland is thrown out of the EU and collapses economically.
Iran produces suitcase nukes and plans to detonate a number of them simultaneously to cripple Israel, thus allowing a mass attack on Israel by its neighbor states. Due to a software glitch, the plan goes wrong. A nuclear holocaust and a 50% reduction in the world's oil supply result. World trade collapses due to the resulting energy shortage. Ireland's situation gets even worse.
Tom Cosgrave lives in London with his brother Sean. He subdues a violent drunk on a train, but is arrested and beaten by Officer Green, a psychotic EUPO. Sean finds that the archives of Albion Oil & Gas, where he works, contain information, classified secret by EU diktat, to which he is denied access. His access attempt is reported to Officer Green, who notes that Sean is Tom's brother.
Germany demands that the USA remove its bases. The US considers alternative locations in Europe. Only Ireland is interested, but it needs protection against the EU.
Officer Green is determined to get both brothers. He maneuvers Tom into a situation in which he is forced to escape abroad. He goes to Ireland, where he becomes embroiled in a plot to solve Ireland's financial problems. Sean is asked to help.
The involvement of the USA ramps up. Air and ground military forces are mobilized. Officer Green goes totally out of control. Events proceed at a rapidly increasing rate, seemingly with a will of their own. The final outcome of Dr. Schmetterling's night on the "black stuff" surprises everyone.

Touchdown! Folks in Alabama don’t know whether to cheer or run when hearing the expression. Touchdown could mean that we’ve just won another football National Championship or it could indicate that a tornado is on the ground.
I could never be a storm chaser. I’m the one the storm chases. Funnels circle around me like shark fins as I bow my head in a school hallway, kneel down in a convent, or give birth to a newborn baby wailing in unison with the tornado sirens.
I huddle with toddlers in showers and beg for shelter in a McDonald’s freezer. I remain a sitting duck in a second-floor apartment, and find myself in the wrong place at the wrong time while in the emergency room with storm victims.
Life in the Rocket City is a thrill ride which is not for the faint of heart, this I know. So brace yourself for a front row seat on a ride through Tornado Valley!
Alabama is the home of the world’s deadliest twisters, and Huntsville is in the heart of the arena. Our space history is out of this world, but our tornado history will blow you away.
Take a rollercoaster ride through the history of Alabama tornadoes before plunging into the gripping story of the Day of Devastation. Witness the stars falling on Alabama in 1833. Then get ready for the sky to fall!...
