An unstoppable wave surges toward the nation's most important nuclear facility in this high-stakes thriller of natural disaster and human resilience. <p/>A disaster begins with a crack--and becomes a cataclysm. When a series of dams in British Columbia collapse, a churning wall of water surges down the Columbia River, setting off a race against time across the Pacific Northwest. <p/>As the torrent barrels toward the Richland nuclear facility in Washington State, scientists, engineers, and first responders must confront an unthinkable scenario: a meltdown that could poison the river, devastate ecosystems, and send radioactive contamination into the Pacific Ocean. <p/>Relentless and cinematic, The Wave is a pulse-pounding thrill ride--where every second counts, and the cost of failure is unimaginable.
