When a mystery thousands of years in the making threatens tocatapult the enemies of America to a sure and decisive victory, the only personthe president can call for help is the man the administration has just fired. Caught live on Al Jazeera in an off-the-books operation,Scot Harvath's career has been terminated and he is forced to go to ground asthe president bows to pressure from a ruthless senator with her sights set onthe White House. But when the tide in the war on terror suddenly turns againstthe U.S., the president has no choice but to secretly bring Harvath backinside. Ducking a congressional subpoena, Harvath travels to theMediterranean, where he learns of a shadowy organization that has been combingthe earth for decades in search of the ultimate weapon to use against theUnited States and her allies. Now, after three summers of record-setting heat acrosspresent-day Europe, one steadily melting Alpine glacier has given up an ancientsecret--one with the potential to thrust civilization back into the Dark Ages. From Cyprus, London, and Paris, to Italy, Switzerland, andSaudi Arabia, Harvath must race against the clock to stop one of the greatestevils ever to face the United States.
