That thing is growing again.
We must destroy it.
The time to act is now.
With these words begins Gideon Crew's latest, most dangerous, most high stakes assignment yet. Failure will mean nothing short of the end of humankind on carth. Five years ago, the mysterious and inscrutable head of Effective Engineering Solutions, Eli Glínn, led a mission to recover a gigantic meteorite--the largest ever discovered--from a remote island off the coast of South America. The mission ended in disaster when their ship, the Rolaag, foundered in a vicious storm in the Antarctic waters and broke apart, sinking-along with its unique cargo--to the ocean floor. One hundred and eight crew members perished, and Eli Glinn was left paralyzed. But this was not all. The tragedy revealed some- thing truly terrifying: the metcorite they tried to retrieve was not, in fact, simply a rock. Instead, it was a complex organism from the deep reaches of space. Now, that lifeform has implanted itself in the sea bed two miles below the surface--and it is growing. If it is not destroyed, the planet will be doomed. There is only one hope: for Glinn and his team to annihilate it, a task which requires Gideon's expertise with nuclear weapons. But as Gideon and his colleagues soon discover, the "metcorite" has a mind of its own--and it has no intention of going quietly
