A Different Kind of Rain

It began when a cumulus cloud over a lake in the Canadian wilderness suddenly began to change shape. It rose high above the rest and acquired the anvil head of a rain cloud and then slowly turned pale green and deluged the land beneath with a deadly poison. From that point on the story races through murders international plots high and low politics in Washington clandestine government operations and a shadowy enemy in whose hands held the secret of the green rain. The truth of what was happening and of what was about to happen was a burden carried alone by John Erickson a journalist who had seen weather modification and defoliants used as weapons in Vietnam had visited and seen what had happened to that lake in Canada and understood the horror it all added up to. But someone was trying to kill him.
