If the biblical plagues of Egypt truly happenedcould they happen againon a global scale

Two years after vanishing into the Sudanese desert, the leader of a British archeological expedition, Professor Harold McCabe, comes stumbling out, but he dies before he can tell his story.

Seeking answers, Commander Gray Pierce and Sigma Force travel from the plague-ridden streets of Cairo to an ancient tomb buried under the sands of the Sudan to a remote Arctic engineering complex housing a mad genius. But time is running out to confront a threat born of the ancient past and made real by the latest sciencea danger that will unleash a cascading series of plagues, culminating in a scourge that could kill all of the worlds children . . . decimating humankind forever.

Reviews

"Bestseller Rollins's epic 12th Sigma Force adventure features exotic locales, heroic quests, quixotic villains, action galore, and enough science and scientific curiosities to titillate even casual readers...Rollins's characters are as large as his landscape in this vast and vastly entertaining thriller saga."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"When it comes to the blending of action, adventure, history, and science, there is no other author who does it better than Rollins. Fans of Clive Cussler, Steve Berry, and Michael Crichton should already have Rollins on their mandatory reading list."--Booklist (starred review)
