The Encore is an otherworldly tale of catastrophe, crisis, courage, calling, creation, community, and camaraderie. It is an eco-thriller forewarning of an all-to-possible threat to planet Earth.

This shocker is so gripping, so profound, and so riddled with truth and meaning that no reader can remain unchanged. Nor can the world.
