Synopsis

"Search" is an adrenaline-fueled, action-packed thriller where science, religion, past truths, and present beliefs all come together in a plot as intricate and unpredictable as the histories it chronicles. David Weir is a young geneticist who's made a profound discovery: ancient sequences of non-human DNA embedded in the genes of a few of people around the world, including himself. Jess MacClary and her family are the guardians of an ancient revelation, one that actually arises from their unwavering beliefs that once, in a much earlier age, gods walked among us. Homer Stennis Ironwood is a wealthy, power-hungry man driven to reveal the hidden truth of the origins of human civilization. Armed with David's research, Ironwood sets out to penetrate the MacClary family secrets once and for all. The stage has been set for the final confrontation, but what neither side realizes is that their struggle has raged longer than even the MacClarys know.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Acclaimed "New York Times" bestselling novelists Judith and Garfield Reeves-Stevens once again bring their unique blend of relentless suspense and cutting-edge science to a page-turning story of adventure that spans the globe and millennia of human history, racing from long-buried ruins in Cornwall and the casinos of Atlantic City, to the ancient caves of the legendary White Island itself. With a mystery more profound than Dan Brown's "The Da Vinci Code", and scientific speculation more provocative than Michael Crichton's "Next", "The White Island" is a ground-breaking novel that goes beyond wild theories of ancient astronauts and sunken empires to suggest a startling new vision of the birth - and future - of human civilization.
