Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
The waters off the West African coast are a menacing red, full of algae thick enough to stand on in places. In nearby villages, mysterious deaths start to occur -- and the panic mounts. But before an alarm can be sounded, the sea currents shift, the algae vanishes, and the deaths stop. Everyone is relieved when things return to normal, and local government officials are happy to sweep the publicity nightmare under a rug.

"When sea currents shift, the red algae along the West African coast vanishes and the mysterious deaths stop. Professor Theo Bishop and biological researcher Avery Madison know the danger hasn't passed but changed locations and headed toward America. But everywhere they turn, powerful interests are determined to silence all credible evidence of the impending biological disaster"-- Provided by publisher.
The waters off the West African coast are a menacing red, full of algae thick enough to stand on in places. In nearby villages, mysterious deaths start to occur, and panic mounts. Then the sea currents shift, the algae vanishes, and the deaths stop. An American biological researcher, Avery Madison, is dispatched by his employer to piece together exactly what happened, fearing an ecological disaster just like this could occur. The evidence he finds in West Africa is rapidly disappearing, but the danger hasn't disappeared... parts of the Caribbean start turning a familiar red right before hurricane season kicks into high gear. If Avery and his colleagues can't convince the world of what's about to happen, toxic destruction could be loosed on American soil. -- adapted from back cover
