What if Pandora's Box were real? Blaine McCracken finds himself facing
this very question--and the greatest threat to mankind--in his
long-awaited return.
Rogue special-operations agent McCracken has never been shy about
answering the call, and this time it comes in the aftermath of a
deep-water oil rig disaster that claims the life of a onetime member of
his commando unit. The remnants of the rig and its missing crew lead him
to the inescapable conclusion that one of the most mysterious and deadly
forces in the universe is to blame: Dark matter, both a limitless source
of potential energy and an unimaginably destructive weapon.
Joining forces again with his trusty sidekick, Johnny Wareagle,
McCracken races to stop two deadly enemies who want the dark matter at
all costs. A powerful energy magnate and the leader of a Japanese
doomsday cult both seek the ultimate prize for their own nefarious
reasons, and McCracken and Wareagle's mission to defeat them takes the
duo on a nonstop journey across the world and thousands of years into
the past where the truth lies in the ancient Pandora's Temple, built to
safeguard the world's most powerful weapon.
McCracken's only hope to save the world is to find the mythical temple.
Along the way, he and Wareagle find themselves up against Mexican drug
gangs, killer robots, an army of professional assassins, and a legendary
sea monster. The hero of nine previous best-selling thrillers, McCracken
is used to the odds being stacked against him, but this time the stakes
have never been higher.
