Last Oracle

Autor James Rollins
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 26 apr 2011
In Washington, D.C., a homeless man takes an assassin's bullet and dies in Commander Gray Pierce's arms. A bloody coin clutched in the dead man's hand—an ancient relic that can be traced back to the Greek Oracle of Delphi—is the key to a conspiracy that dates back to the Cold War and threatens the very foundation of humanity. For what if it were possible to bioengineer the next great prophet—a new Buddha, Muhammad, or even Jesus? Would this Second Coming be a boon . . . or would it initiate a chain reaction that would result in the extinction of humankind?
Vital seconds are ticking rapidly away as Pierce races across the globe in search of answers, one step ahead of ruthless killers determined to reclaim the priceless artifact. Suddenly the future of all things is balanced on the brink between heaven and hell—and salvation or destruction rests in the hands of remarkable children.
Will the past be enough to save the future?

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
Can the past save the future? asks the latest SIGMA Force thriller from the king of the genre.

In Washington DC, a homeless man dies in the arms of Commander Gray Pierce clutching a bloody coin in his hand - an ancient artefact that could unlock a plot threatening the very foundation of humanity.

Meanwhile, a group of international scientists are engineering children with exceptional talents into something far greater and more frightening - a world prophet for the new millennium, one to be manipulated to create a new era of global peace...a peace on their own terms.

For Commander Pierce and SIGMA Force, it's a race against time to solve a mystery that dates back to the Oracle of Delphi...
