Slade Lockwood, retired LAPD Deputy Chief and hero of The Oasis Project, returns in Power Grid to grant the cryptic wishes of a dying man. Trying to discover a secret power source which may have constructed architectural wonders of antiquity and destroyed Atlantis 11,000 years before, Slade finds that a little knowledge can be a dangerous thing. Cast into an arena of international intrigue, he races against time and around the world to unravel the mystery of Power Grid and to keep it out of the hands of corrupt government officials and nations intent on turning an ancient technology into a modern weapon of war. As the clues to Power Grid are revealed, will Slade succeed in his mission to make the secrets of the past remain in the past? The future of the Earth may well depend on it.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Power Grid follows Slade Lockwood and a cast of his friends around the globe searching for the clues that led a Florida catfisherman to possibly create a new and dangerous power source.
Apparently, this is a sequel to a previous Slade Lockwood novel as there are many references to the events of that book - but Power Grid stands well on it's own, supplying enough information for new readers to know who's who and their motivations that continue from the previous book.
Slade is a retired LAPD police officer, and seems to be getting involved in larger incidents than he was when he was a working professional. As Slade runs from government agents, and searches for clues he was told to keep secret, he makes a few silly mistakes, which only make him more human.
In the end, after travelling around the globe, he manages to do the right the thing with the information he's found, with the help of his team.
Power Grid was a fun ride, and I'd read more stories featuring Slade Lockwood.
