Kalenderen tæller ned til Ragnarok.På en bænk i det sommerglade Tivoli skyder den pensionerede professor Bjarne Arnesen sig en kugle for panden. Hans stedsøn, den Cavlingprisvindende journalist Kurt Østergård, modtager en videobesked fra ham 28 måneder efter. Arnesen trygler Kurt om at stoppe det han kalder "dem" og beder ham fortsætte hvor han slap. Det leder Kurt til en opdagelse, der får store konsekvenser ikke blot for Kurt, men for Danmark og kongefamilien. Samtidig bliver strålingsekspert og tidligere våbeninspektør for FN, Søren Storm, bedt om at hjælpe politiet i opklaringen af et strålingsrelateret mord begået på Rigshospitalet. Det makabre og bizarre mord leder Storm på sporet af en radioaktiv bombe der kan gå af hvert øjeblik det skal være et sted i København.

Donald Lee Smith came on the electrical energy sceen in the mid 1980s after a very active life in geology and teaching high school science. Since his death over 12 years ago there has been little progress in English forums in replicating his various systems, which is rather a mystery. We have watched the lack of progress with great dissapointment for some years now. About half of the information Don shared with the public relating to Resonance Systems has been online for years. The other half consists in material form his original publications and the two oldest videos that we recently uploaded to YouTube. These videos actually provided the main context for his later videos and the information in the online book and documents floating around. This book fills in the gaps and provides a fuller context. This is all the available Don Smith books, video transcripts, and relevant emails in one place. It has a Systematic Index, regular Index, and many helps to understand Don's technology. It lists and illustrates all the models shown with many color pages. We hope this book will bring order to the existing chaos, and give people the practical tools to learn how to use everyday parts all around them to provide for their energy needs. It is really that simple. The problem is getting past bias and disinformation.

Kurt Danner og hans makker, Bill, er lige ankommet til New York for at hygge sig med gamle venner, da de bliver opsøgt af en ubehageligt udseende mand. Allerede ved første blik kan Kurt ikke døje ham, men det, manden siger, fanger alligevel hans opmærksomhed. Han leder efter et par vovehalse, der vil med på en ekspedition til det uudforskede kontinent, Sydpolen, hvor han mener, der gemmer sig uran i store mængder. Efter Anden Verdenskrig har verden opdaget, at uran kan bruges til atomkraft – og det er der penge i!NB!
