After the 1908 Tunguska blast levels a Siberian forest the size of
London, a Russian scientist makes an amazing discovery amongst the
debris.
In 1947, 10-year-old Fay Allen of Roswell, New Mexico, witnesses the
fiery crash of an extraordinary craft unlike anything she's ever seen.
More than 60 years later, former Army combat engineer Tyler Locke
rescues Fay from gunmen who are after a piece of wreckage she claims is
from the Roswell incident. Incredulous of her tale, Tyler believes the
attack on Fay is nothing more than a burglary gone wrong. But when he
finds himself locked in the back of a truck carrying a hundred tons of
explosives and heading for a top secret American base, Tyler knows that
he has stumbled onto the opening gambit of something more sinister than
he ever imagined.
Because disgraced Russian spy Vladimir Colchev is after an Air Force
prototype code-named Killswitch, an electromagnetic pulse weapon of
unprecedented power. Although Tyler is able to avert catastrophe at the
US facility, Colchev gets away with the bomb and plans to turn it on
America itself. To complete his mission, he needs only one other key
component, a mysterious object recovered from the Roswell crash.
In a desperate race against time, Tyler must unmask a conspiracy a
century in the making to rescue the United States from electronic
Armageddon.
