#1 New York Times bestselling authors Preston & Child continue with the wildly popular series featuring archaeologist Nora Kelly and FBI Agent Corrie Swanson.

Lucas Tappan, a wealthy and eccentric billionaire and founder of Icarus Space Systems, approaches the Santa Fe Archaeological Institute with an outlandish proposal—to finance a careful, scientific excavation of the Roswell Incident site, where a UFO is alleged to have crashed in 1947. A skeptical Nora Kelly, to her great annoyance, is tasked with the job.

Nora's excavation immediately uncovers two murder victims buried at the site, faces and hands obliterated with acid to erase their identities. Special Agent Corrie Swanson is assigned to the case. As Nora’s excavation proceeds, uncovering things both bizarre and seemingly inexplicable, Corrie’s homicide investigation throws open a Pandora's box of espionage and violence, uncovering bloody traces of a powerful force that will stop at nothing to protect its secrets—and that threatens to engulf them all in an unimaginable fate.

Another great read!

Love the characters of Corrie and Nora. Great to see such formidable female personalities . Not sure about the alien angle but enjoyed the story immensely despite it. These two are giving Pendergast and Coldmoon a run for their money.

Very enlightening about UFOs, don't want to spoil anything. This was a great continuation of the Nora Kelly series. Like all of their books, brilliantly written.

Was enjoying the series but very disappointed..

Oh this is getting boring in its sameness..take a step back and look at the whole 3 books, same same same, can you seriously charge for the third book.and your comments about the British puts me right of..unnecessary.....so now I will go back and continue to enjoy the scandi writers, who have in most cases so much more talent..and are much more entertaining and obviously use more effort than these books pumping out samness

Good story but not too sure about the end.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 February 2022

Verified Purchase

I have thoroughly enjoyed the two previous Nora Kelly books but this did go out on a limb. Still well written and no regrets at reading it but I would have preferred the end to have been more a great archaeological find rather than an alien artifact. Perhaps if the authors note reviews, they might go back to the fascinating archaeological thread while bringing in a detective mystery of just a secret Indian city of similar rather than science fiction.

extremely readable

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 17 February 2022

The returning characters continue to develop and several new characters are excellent creations. The story follows a pattern of plots within plots and a nasty evil entity trying to thwart every line of enquiry.
I love the combination of archaeology, forensics and detective work that blend together to exceed the sum of their parts.

Another good Preston and Child story.

Good storyline which borders on drifting into fantasy but redeems itself with a clever ending.
