CATACLYSM
The author's bio states that Scott Conditt writes science fiction and tactical thrillers combining authenticity with cinematic storytelling. That describes the essence of Cataclysm, a science fiction horror story with plenty of action and gore (if you are sensitive to animal abuse, you might pass on this one). The story involves an 'Arbiter' or 'Ref' working for an agency called the Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF) housed deep under the Pentagon. An Arbiter's job is to observe, report and advise with a high degree of outcome probability accuracy for the "controllers" of the world. The subject matter observed involves strange, shocking and anomalous events that take place around the world, and SCIF for the most part, provides mundane explanations for the public or covers up the events completely. The story unwinds as the Arbiter views video footage from many sources what took place within and outside the Advanced Research and Development Site DD1525 built deep within an abandoned copper mine 15 miles outside the town of Springerville, AZ. The town itself is a long-forgotten mining town, almost turned ghost town after the collapse of the local copper mine in the 1980s. Only a few hundred residents still reside in the town, surviving on government handouts due to the cover the town provides the nearby secret facility. Through the video footage the horror of a top-secret DOD project gone wrong is told. This tale could definitely be turned into a movie.
