Coles After the Impact at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC

When the sky burns over the North Sea, no one on Platform Ørnen realizes the true danger is still below them.
A meteor streaks across the horizon and slams into the ocean hundreds of kilometers away, sending a shockwave racing through the seabed. The impact seems distant - just another strange event in an unpredictable world - until the platform's sensors begin to register something far more dangerous.
Deep beneath the seafloor lies a massive methane hydrate field, a frozen reservoir of gas locked in fragile geological equilibrium. The shockwave has disturbed it.
At first the signs are subtle: strange readings, faint bubbles rising through the water, instruments behaving in ways no one expects. But as the hours pass, the evidence becomes impossible to ignore. The methane deposits are destabilizing.
If the dissociation spreads to the field's central mass, millions of cubic meters of gas could erupt from the seabed - creating an explosive atmosphere around the platform and turning the entire area of ocean into a lethal trap.
With communications failing and corporate pressure mounting to resume drilling, platform manager Leif Håkon must decide whether to trust the science, the company, or his own instincts.
Because if he's wrong, the North Sea will ignite.
And everyone on Ørnen will be caught in the blast.
After the Impact is a gripping techno-thriller about science, risk, and the thin line between routine operations and catastrophe.
