Cumbre Vieja

Cumbre Vieja

'It's not a question of if, it's a question of when. It may not occur <br />for a thousand years ... Or it could happen tomorrow.' <br /> <br />Geophysicist Xavier Delacrúz roams the Cumbre Vieja volcano <br />on La Palma in the Canary Islands. <br /> <br />Soon he detects sulfur dioxide — the precursor to an eruption. <br />A small fissure, motionless for more than half a century opens <br />into a yawning rupture and Delacrúz embarks upon a desperate <br />race to warn a world ill-prepared for, and in denial of the greatest <br />natural disaster in history — a mega-tsunami that will claim the <br />lives of millions.
