This latest
thriller featuring the elite group of scientists and ex-special
forces personnel goes deep into the Rocky Mountains where a long
hidden cave holds a centuries-old secret that will have international
repercussions if it is ever brought to light.
Hundreds of
mummified bodies, along with some strange artifacts and gold plates
with an unfathomable script, ignite a war among the nation’s
most powerful intelligence agencies.
More to the
point, the discovery also involves a clandestine group that wields
unheard of power and sets in motion a chain reaction: a global geological
meltdown. Having manipulated American history since the colonial
period, the dark faction is deeply embedded in the country and isn’t
about to give up its secrets without a deadly struggle.
James Rollins
delves into questions about the truth hidden within the pages of
the Book of Mormon and about a conspiracy of lies tied to the country’s
most important founding documents and how the truth of those lies
was locked into the Great Seal of the United States by Ben Franklin
and Thomas Jefferson.
A gripping
and totally engrossing read, The Devil Colony will have
you shaking your head in wonder as you race from one page to the
next. Don’t start this novel unless you are willing to give
up some snooze time since you won’t be able to set it down!
