CHANTICLEER'S FIVE-STAR REVIEW OF HEAVY HYSTERIA. Rating 5/5. Highly Recommended
"Scientific and moral questions swirl in Charlie Robinson's latest thriller, Heavy Hysteria: A Novel of Corporate Intrigue Involving the Minerals of this Sacred Earth.
Readers are thrust into a suspenseful journey with worldwide implications alongside Dr. Charlie Cavanaugh, a 68-year-old priest and scientist.
Arriving home after a spiritual retreat, he is surprised by an FBI agent sitting with Cavanaugh's gun on his lap. The agent has subverted a freshly enhanced security system to retrieve Cavanaugh's encrypted, unpublished Hybrid Hysteria report from a concealed USB stick.
The FBI needs Cavanaugh's assistance with a delicate national security issue.
His widely researched and circulated Applied Physics Letters scientific publication revealed the severe danger that specific configurations of the Gauss Hybrid Electric Auto Company's batteries posed for human health. That report saved thousands of lives - and his expertise is called back to action.
GHEA is now under new management. Prices for GHEA battery minerals are rising rapidly, putting national security and electric car manufacturers at risk.
A small secret organization wants to build on Cavanaugh's research to track down the people behind the threat, focusing on the "Tones," a rogue group within the Deep State. But chances are high that Cavanaugh's involvement will again put him on the Tones' radar, who previously abducted his fellow scientists and co-authors.
Following the widely acclaimed Hybrid Hysteria-a Novel of Corporate Intrigue Both Holy and Diabolical, this serpentine tale reveals deep-seated treachery and calamitous profit-driven deception.
Cavanaugh, a man of the cloth, shrewdly transcends his duty as a "simple priest" and takes on the unfamiliar hat of a spy to unearth complex truths. With a bull's eye on his back, he assumes challenging positions that push him into the unfamiliar dark web."
"Heavy Hysteria's corporate espionage transcends tribal territories and state borders.
It is a truly compelling plot with a vividly drawn, sharp-witted hero, ticking all the boxes of a suspense thriller.
Together, these features draw readers with ever-growing curiosity towards an exciting and unforeseen end.
Well-written and propulsive, this novel delivers much more than it promises.
"With an intriguing premise, this tour de force is bound to captivate readers whether or not they're fans of suspense thrillers."
