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 from a remote island off the coast of South America. But the meteorite was not a rock—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. Gideon and his colleagues must annihilate it, but the meteorite has a mind of its own and has no intention of going quietly.
