The Jackhammer Elegies
When Scott Carter, a savvy civil and structural engineer, finds himself in an elevator at the top of one of his own high-rise building designs, a powerful blast in the basement rocks Carter from his everyday life into a media limelight--and ultimately into the crosshairs of a technically cunning terrorist, alias Jackhammer. Carter becomes a consultant to the FBI as it investigates the engineering angles to the case, teaming up with Special Agent Michelle Taylor, whose striking presence pulls Carter into the complications of a growing love and doubts about his future. The partners soon find themselves matching wits with an elusive mastermind hell-bent on bringing down the lifelines of a city's public works.

The Jackhammer Elegies won a 2013 SET Award from the Entertainment Industries Council "for accurate and impactful entertainment portraying and promoting the fields of science, engineering, technology and math." Additional 2013 winners include the TV shows and movies The Big Bang Theory, NCIS, Iron Man 3, and Star Trek into Darkness, among others.
