eBook 정보
A zoologist must derail a catastrophic plot when an abandoned submarine is discovered deep in the Brazilian wilderness in this adventure series debut.
“Two of the best adventure writers to hit the scene in a long time.” —Clive Cussler
1944. As war rages in Europe and the Pacific, Army intel makes a shocking discovery: a three-hundred-foot Japanese submarine marooned and empty, deep in the Brazilian interior. A team of Army Rangers sent to investigate has already gone missing, and the military sends Captain R. J. MacCready, a quick-witted, brilliant scientific jack-of-all-trades to learn why the Japanese are there—and what they’re planning.
Parachuting into a mist-shrouded valley beneath a two-thousand-foot plateau, Mac is unexpectedly reunited with fellow scientist and friend Bob Thorne, presumed dead for years. Thorne, a botanist, lives with Yanni, an indigenous woman who possesses a mysterious, invaluable knowledge of the rain forest. Their wisdom and expertise will prove lifesaving for Mac as he sets out into the unknown.
Soon, Mac learns of a diabolical Axis plot to destroy the United States and its allies. But there’s an even darker force on the prowl, attacking at night and targeting both man and beast. Mac has to uncover the source of this emerging biological crisis and foil the enemy’s plans . . . but will he be in time to save humanity from itself?
“Will haunt you long after you put the book down.” —James Cameron, director/writer/explorer
“Michael Crichton fans will be pleased that the ending leaves room for a sequel.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
“Fast-moving fun for thriller readers who enjoy a bit of horror and seeing bad guys get what’s coming to them.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
