The Burning Sea by P.D. Saracin is a fictional thriller that takes random terrorist attacks from the headlines and weaves them into a singular missile pointed at destroying the American economy. Using real news from recent memory, and an accurate historical timeline, Saracin manages to interweave a series of tragedies into a well-planned dress rehearsal for a future catastrophic event. In The Burning Sea, authorities know of only two people who can assist in the capture of the mastermind behind the attacks, Raschid Nurideen: Sean McVean and his new bride, Catalina Murchison. The couple met and fell in love in Saracin's first book, Fool's Gold, while being unwittingly used by Nurideen in a different dastardly terrorist plot.
