About this listen

When inventor Martin Tirabi builds a machine that converts trash into oil, it sends shockwaves through the corporate halls of the oil cognoscenti. Weeks later, Marty and his wife, Ruth, are killed in a mysterious car accident. Their son, Gil, a 10-year-old physics prodigy, is the only one capable of finishing the machine that could solve the world’s energy problems. Plagued with epilepsy from birth, Gil is also psychic, and through dreams and the occasional missive from his dead father, he gets the push he needs to finish the job. Meanwhile, Bicky Coleman, head of Akanabi Oil, is doing his best to smear the planet with it. From a slow leak in the Gulf of Mexico to the most devastating oil spill the Delaware River has ever seen, Akanabi’s corporate practices are leaving oily imprints in their wake. To divert the tide of bad press, Bicky dispatches his son-in-law and Chief Engineer, David Hartos, to clean up his mess. A disillusioned Hart, reeling from the recent death of his wife and unborn child, travels to Philadelphia to fulfill his father-in-law’s wishes.There’s no such thing as coincidence when Hart meets Gil and agrees to help him finish Marty’s dream machine. But how will he bring such a revolutionary invention to market in a world reliant on fossil fuels and awash in corporate greed? To do so, Hart must confront those who would quash the project, including his own father-in-law. You’ll find murder, mystery, and humor as black as fine Arabian crude filling the pages of Oil and Water. The characters are fictional, but the technology is real. What will we do when the oil runs out? Open up and see. Science Fiction Witty
