Buildings buckle, freeways sink, and entire neighborhoods slide into ruin. The catastrophe is not a random act of nature. It is the long-delayed consequence of buried truths, willful blindness, and corruption baked into concrete.For Leo Sandoval, a geologist long dismissed as a Cassandra, the collapse is vindication at a devastating cost.
