    Introducing Gideon Crew: trickster, prodigy, master thief At twelve, Gideon Crew witnessed his father, a world-class mathematician, accused of treason and gunned down. At twenty-four, summoned to his dying mother's bedside, Gideon learned the truth: His father was framed and deliberately slaughtered. With her last breath, she begged her son to avenge him. Now, with a new purpose in his life, Gideon crafts a one-time mission of vengeance, aimed at the perpetrator of his father's destruction. His plan is meticulous, spectacular, and successful. But from the shadows, someone is watching. A very powerful someone, who is impressed by Gideon's special skills. Someone who has need of just such a renegade. For Gideon, this operation may be only the beginning . . .

  3. 2

    A top nuclear scientist goes mad and takes an innocent family hostage at gunpoint, killing one and causing a massive standoff. A plume of radiation above New York City leads to a warehouse where, it seems, a powerful nuclear bomb was assembled just hours before. Sifting through the evidence, authorities determine that the unthinkable is about to happen: In ten days, a major American city will be vaporized by a terrorist attack. Ten days. And Gideon Crew, tracking the mysterious terrorist cell from the suburbs of New York to the mountains of New Mexico, learns the end may be something worse-far worse-than mere Armageddon.

    The Lost Island
  5. 4

    Hace cinco años Eli Glinn trató de recuperar un meteorito gigantesco de una isla remota en el cabo de Hornos, en la punta de Sudamérica. La misión acabó en desastre, pues su embarcación se hundió en una tormenta salvaje en aguas antárticas y arrastró el cargamento a las profundidades del océano. Perecieron más de cien tripulantes, y Eli Glinn quedó paralítico. El meteorito, sin embargo, no era una simple piedra. Ese organismo complejo llegado del espacio ha echado raíces en el fondo marino y está creciendo. O se destruye o el planeta está condenado. La única esperanza es que Glinn y su equipo lo aniquilen, tarea para la que requieren la experiencia de Gideon en armas nucleares. No obstante, pronto descubrirán que el «meteorito» tiene ideas propias y entre ellas no se halla quedarse tranquilo.

    Five years ago, Eli Glinn led a mission ro recover a 25,000-ton meteorite - the largest ever discovered - from a remote island off the coast of South America. It ended in disaster when their ship foundered and broke apart in a vicious storm. But now, two miles down in dark Antarctic waters, something is growing. A vast, grotesque structure is simultaneously reaching up towards the waves and burrowing deep into the sea floor. Eli Glinn's worst fear has been realised. He has no choice but to return to the Southern Ocean and attempt to annihilate an entity that threatens the existence of the planet. But, as he will discover, the entity has no intention of going quietly.
