Description

For millennia it has lain there undiscovered. Now the time has come...

Research scientist Evelyn Edwards always knew the Antarctic held deep secrets but the discovery of a 40,000-year-old body buried under the ice caps surpasses even her wildest expectations. But just as her team begins extracting the body the dream turns into a horrific nightmare as they are targeted for death by someone who wants to keep this secret buried. Evelyn barely escapes with her life...

On the run, alone and desperate, she turns to her ex-husband - Matt Adams, a former member of an elite government unit - for help. Soon, they find themselves caught up in a frantic race against time, which takes them from Area 51 to the Large Hadron Collider in Geneva, as they try to uncover the biggest conspiracy of all time before it's too late for everyone...

If mankind thought it knew its origins, the time has come to think again because its every belief is about to be challenged...
