Once again Bill Roberts and his ex-secretary Darby are challenged in another mission for the Admirals Club. This time the scene is in Ireland where famous tourist landmarks known as the Giant's Causeway, the Blarney Stone and the Carrick-e-Rede rope bridge are woven into the intrigue of the story.
In a clandestine research project, a physicist with roots to a former terrorist faction of the Irish Republican Army discovers the beating of a hand-crafted Irish Lambeg Drum causes strange phenomena to occur in a basalt hexagonal segment of the Giant’s Causeway. The rare segment is thought to contain unique mineral crystals with the potential of having extraordinary value to the semi-conductor world.
An American corporation called CINTEC makes plans to produce a microprocessor chip from the Causeway crystals that allegedly will be smaller, faster and more efficient than any microprocessor chip on the world’s market. The chip, if it performs as advertised, has the potential for extraordinary wealth for investors. Since an opportunity for fraud exists, on a global scale, Bill Roberts and Darby are tasked to go under cover and investigate. In this adventure, saving the world is not just an expression, it is an actuality.
The story, "The Celtic Lambeg” is contained herein, it figuratively took more than a billion years to be written.
