Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Amy Austin never wanted power. She wanted people to have it.When the young inventor's revolutionary Walking Leaf reactor makes it possible to deliver affordable, reliable energy to some of the world's poorest communities, a quiet technological breakthrough becomes a global political earthquake.In the refugee camps of Kenya, where people struggle to survive without the basic necessities of modern life, electricity means more than light. It means clean water, refrigeration for medicine, education, jobs, security, and hope. For young Jamala, electricity represents something even more powerful: a chance to shape her own future.But not everyone wants that future to arrive.As powerful interests move behind the scenes to control Africa's destiny, a notorious ecoterrorist is pulled from the shadows, governments maneuver for influence, and a hidden war begins-one fought through deception, sabotage, politics, media, and fear.Standing in the middle of it all is Amy Austin and a growing coalition of scientists, engineers, advocates, and ordinary people who believe that energy abundance should belong to everyone.From the laboratories of Michigan to the refugee settlements of East Africa, A War in Hiding is a gripping science-based thriller about innovation, courage, and the battle over who gets to build tomorrow.At its heart, this is a story about Africa's promise.Not a continent waiting to be rescued.A continent ready to rise.And a future that becomes possible when the lights finally come on.
