Produktbeschreibung
Off the coast of Brazil, a team of scientists discovers an island where all life has been eradicated by a species beyond imagination. Before they can report their discovery, a mysterious agency attacks, killing them all, save one: an expert on venomous creatures. Strangest of all, this inexplicable threat traces back to a terrifying secret buried a century ago beneath the National Mall: a cache of bones preserved in amber that holds an astonishing promise for the future: the very secret of life after death. Yet, nothing stays buried forever. An ancient horror is free once more, nursed and developed into a weapon of incalculable strength and malignancy, ready to wreak havoc on an unsuspecting world. To stop its spread, Commander Grayson Pierce of Sigma Force must survive a direct attack on the island of Maui. But this time, even Sigma may not be able to decipher this deadly mystery, one that traces back to the founding of the Smithsonian Institution. Running out of time and options, Pierce will be forced to make an impossible choice. To eradicate this extinction-level threat and expose those involved, he will have to join forces with Sigma’s greatest enemy even it if means sacrificing one of his own.
