À propos de cet audio
In the not too distant past, along the Mississippi River, North America tried to tear itself in half.
It failed. It won’t the second time.
New Madrid Earthquake is a stand-alone disaster thriller from international best-selling author Bobby Akart, one of America's favorite storytellers who has delivered up-all-night thrillers to readers and listeners in 245 countries and territories worldwide.
Two hundred years ago, several faults within the New Madrid seismic zone along the Mississippi River ruptured triggering some of the largest earthquakes in American history. The three massive quakes ripped open America's Heartland, shaking residents as far away as New York City and Washington, DC, while ringing church bells in Boston and Charleston, South Carolina.
Akart's stand-alone novel New Madrid Earthquake is based on actual events. It just hasn't happened yet, until now. Two hundred years later after the historic quake sequence of 1811-12, it's reawakened.
The New Madrid fault zone, six times larger than the San Andreas in California, has generated a series of massive earthquakes thrusting the Atwood and Chandler families in a fight to survive. Attorney Jack Atwood and his brother-in-law, Tony Chandler, are winding up their year-end tax-planning presentation atop The Met, a skyscraper in St. Louis, before returning to Memphis for their family's Christmas celebration. Jill Atwood, her daughter, Emily, and teenage son Tate are in a downtown Memphis performing-arts theater attending the dress rehearsal for Emily's Christmas pageant. Beth Chandler, 28 weeks pregnant, together with her three-year old autistic son, are traveling from Louisiana to join the rest of the family in Memphis.
Will they arrive for Christmas? Will they arrive at all? Their lives are about to change forever.
Prepare to be shaken.

A waste of time and money
If this story got any more sugary and saccharine I would be in a diabetic coma.
The subject matter is what drew me in and made me continue to listen, but the over the top sentimentality is just too much. Not only is it nauseating, but it’s predictable and trite.
Perhaps Mr.Akhart was writing this with the Hallmark channel in mind. (after all, he mentions this channel several times, so I can’t help but wonder f there is a connection).
I could go on, but all the blathering in the world could not convey just how bad this novel is. Mr. Akhart has taken what could have been a fantastic story and ruined it.
Novels this bad should be a criminal offence.
