AURORA - Glover Wright If sound never died and could be replayed how many centuries-old beliefs could stand the hard glare of the present? Deep beneath the Mojave desert, one powerful American is obsessed by a project abandoned by the old Soviet Union. A project named BABEL, which threatens world order and history itself. The President of the United States must get to the heart of the secret before dark forces in Europe unleash the devastating psychological weapon. Against a backdrop of political intrigue, the high-running passions of powerful Evangelical America, the secretive heart of the Catholic Church in Rome and the new world of aggressive modern day Russia, the President's search moves forward at a chilling pace to prevent a meltdown of religious beliefs across the world leading to uncontrollable crowds on the streets and ultimate catastrophe. With Eighth Day Glover Wright took his place in the forefront of British thriller writers. Shadow of Babel is his most incisive, gripping and convincing book to date.
