Marine geologist Carl Jameson is
thrown overboard from a Honduran cargo ship before he can warn the world of
an earth-shattering discovery. What terrible secret lurks in the ship's
holds? Why are entire crews of fishermen disappearing off the Central
American coast? How could these events be related to the extinction of the
dinosaurs?
Dan Clifford, a
prediction scientist
on a scuba-diving vacation, is determined to find the
answers to these and other troubling questions. After he discovers
Jameson's bloated corpse on a night dive, he teams up with Rachel Sullivan,
a marine microbiologist and operator of the deep diving submersible, SeaZee.
Their quest for answers sweeps them into a vortex
of political corruption, undersea adventure, biological mystery, and
conspiracy that reaches from the Honduran coast to the U.S. Senate. Their
discoveries carry them back to the origin of life and to a
conclusion that threatens the very existence of humankind; a
conclusion made all the more chilling by the story's factual basis. |
