WHEN A NEW NASA SATELLITE SATELLITE DETECTS EVIDENCE OF AN ASTONISHINGLY RARE OBJECT BURIED DEEP IN THE ARCTIC ICE, THE FLOUNDERING SPACE AGENCY PROCLAIMS A MUCH-NEEDED VICTORY...

A VICTORY THAT HAS PROFOUND IMPLICATION FOR U.S. SPACE POLICY AND THE IMPENDING PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

WITH THE OVAL OFFICE IN THE BALANCE, THE PRESIDENT DISPATCHES WHITE HOUSE INTELLIGENCE ANALYST RACHEL SEXTON TO THE ARCTIC TO VERIFY THE AUTHENTICITY OF THE FIND.

ACCOMPANIED BY A TEAM OF EXPERTS, INCLUDING THE CHARISMATIC ACADEMIC MICHAEL TOLLAND, RACHEL UNCOVERS THE UNTHINKABLE - EVIDENCE OF SCIENTIFIC TRICKERY - A BOLD DECEPTION THAT THREATENS TO PLUNGE THE WORLD INTO CONTROVERSY.

BUT BEFORE RACHEL CAN MAKE HER FINDINGS KNOWN, SHE REALISES, PERHAPS TOO LATE, THAT SUCH KNOWLEDGE PUTS HER AND TOLLAND IN DEADLY JEOPARDY.

FLEEING FOR THEIR LIVES IN AN ENVIRONMENT AS DESOLATE AS IT IS LETHAL, AS IT IS LETHAL, THEY PROCESS ONLY ONE HOPE FOR SURVIVAL; TO FIND OUT WHO IS BEHIND THIS MASTERFUL PLOY.

THE TRUTH, THEY WILL LEARN, IS THE MOST SHOCKING DECEPTION OFALL. `BROWN PROVES ONCE AGAIN THAT HE IS AMONG THE MOST INTELLIGENT AND DYNAMIC OF AUTHORS IN THE THRILLER GENRE.

HE HAS SKILLFULLY BLENDED HIS OWN WIT AND STYLE WITH THE RIP-ROARING ADVENTURE OF CUSSLER AND THE MODERN TECHNOLOGY OF CLANCY.
