This is the tenth novel in the New TOM SWIFT Invention Adventures.
Earthquakes, from the insignificant and barely felt to the devastating and deadly, have been on the increase over the past decade. Particularly disastrous are those that plague the Pacific Rim.
Volcanoes, dormant decades or centuries spew forth lava, ash and death. In India, mudslides kill hundreds. In China, thousands.
As Tom Swift tackles one problem, he discovers that his solution may just be the genesis for finding the cause of all this devastation. With each advancement come more ways the planet seems to be striking back at everyone.
An unexpected discovery points the way to solve many of the problems, but attempting to figure how it can be fixed almost claims the lives of three very close friends.
So Tom must devise a way to heal the very earth under our feet but to do it without endangering anyone's life, because his final solution must work or it could mean a one-way ride to eventual destruction.
