<div>A sinister fire in a Copenhagen bookstore ignites a relent-less hunt
across four continents. Arson and murder reveal an insidious plot to
steal a Bible that once belonged to Charles Darwin, the father of
evolutionary theory. And Commander Gray Pierce dives headlong into a
mystery that dates back to Nazi Germany . . . and to horrific
experiments performed in a now-abandoned laboratory buried in a
hollowed-out mountain in Poland. <br><br> A continent away, madness
ravages a remote monastery high in Nepal, as Buddhist monks turn to
cannibalism and torture. Lisa Cummings, a young American doctor
investigating the atrocity, is suddenly a target of a bru-tal assassin
working for clandestine forces that want the affair buried at any cost.
Lisa's only ally is a hidden pilgrim, Painter Crowe -- director of SIGMA
Force, an elite command of American scientists and Special Forces
operatives -- who is already showing signs of the baffling malady that
destroyed the minds of the monks. <br><br> Now it is up to Gray Pierce
to save both Painter and Lisa -- and a world in jeopardy -- as SIGMA
Force races to expose a century-old plot that threatens to destroy the
current world order . . . and alter the destiny of humankind forever. </div>
