A breakneck story of nonstop suspense, The Year of the Locust is a high-concept thriller unlike any you've read before.

But neither Luke nor the United States government realize the astonishing forces this experiment will unleash. Now the time has come for the first large-scale trial of its effectiveness. It is an eight-hundred-foot-long submarine which, among its vast array of weaponry and secret systems, boasts a top secret 'cloaking technology.' Bending light around objects to render them invisible, it is the hottest military research innovation not just in the US but throughout the world. Luke Truman is a junior officer on board the USS Leviathan, the most advanced and powerful warship ever built. Now, with The Year of the Locust, Hayes has penned a breathtaking story about cutting-edge science, a government conspiracy, and one man's desperate attempt to unravel it all.
