En
esta nueva aventura, Gideon Crew se enfrenta al caso mas peligroso de su
historia.

Esa cosa esta creciendo de
nuevo. Hay que destruirla. Y hay que hacerlo
ya. Hace cinco anos Eli
Glinn trato de recuperar un meteorito gigantesco de una isla remota en el cabo de Hornos, en la
punta de Sudamerica. La mision acabo
en desastre, pues su embarcacion se hundio en una tormenta salvaje en aguas antarticas y arrastro el
cargamento a las profundidades del
oceano. Perecieron mas de cien tripulantes, y Eli Glinn quedo
paralitico.

El meteorito, sin embargo, no era una simple
piedra. Ese organismo complejo llegado
del espacio ha echado raices en el fondo marino y esta

creciendo. O se destruye o el planeta esta condenado. La unica
esperanza es que Glinn y su equipo lo
aniquilen, tarea para la que requieren la

experiencia de Gideon en armas nucleares. No obstante, pronto descubriran que el meteorito tiene ideas
propias y entre ellas no se halla
quedarse tranquilo.

ENGLISH DESCRPTION

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 earth.

Five years ago, the mysterious and inscrutable head of Effective
Engineering Solutions, Eli Glinn, 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 Rolvaag,
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 something truly terrifying: the
meteorite 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 organism 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 meteorite has a mind of its own-and it has no
intention of going quietly…
