Description

In the Amazon basin, the widow of a rubber-tree tapper who was assassinated for opposing destruction of the rain forest receives a gruesome gift -- the head of the financier who ordered her husband's death. In Australia, a tanker captain responsible for a massive oil spill is blown to pieces and top oil executives are drowned or poisoned. Soon, a young investigative journalist has discovered the shocking conspiracy and becomes caught in a deadly war between two brutal and desperate factions, with nothing less than the future of the planet at stake.
