This tells the story of Myah, a 27-year-old marine biologist, working on a grant from NASA to identify new marine life forms on the Great Barrier Reef. She is suddenly recalled to Florida to meet with her grant sponsor who turns out to be the newly elected governor of Mars Colony 1, a mining colony with 5000 residents. Her life makes a radical change when it becomes clear her sponsor wants to send a marine biologist to look for past life on Mars. He shows Myah a sediment rock extracted from a bore sample on Mars. Red Tide follows Myah's journey, beginning on a cruise ship that takes her to Armstrong City on the Moon and then continues with a five-month journey on a transport headed to the colony on Mars. Myah believes the sediment rock is evidence that proves Mars once had a vast surface ocean that disappeared following a radical climate change event. The sediment rock offers a clue that points to past life on the planet. Myah joins an expedition as part of a team following that clue into the Martian frontier where they survive the hostile atmosphere and destructive Martian winds to discover a hidden secret about the planet. This book gives the reader a real picture of what life will be like at the end of the 21st Century. A world your grandchildren are likely to experience when the commercialization of space and tourism to the Moon and Mars becomes common place. Can you imagine what that world will be like? Let Red Tide take you there.
