Join Gideon Crew in Gideon's Corpse, the second adventure in this high-octane thriller series.
A nuclear scientist turns homicidal, taking an innocent family hostage. Gideon Crew, a colleague of his at Los Alamos, is called in to talk the man down. But the standoff ends in an explosion of violence.
When the authorities discover the scientist's body is radioactive and that he had recently embraced Islamic extremism, all hell breaks loose. Gideon finds himself charged with a desperate assignment to track down a rogue nuclear device ... or something even worse.
Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child are the co-authors of a string of bestselling thrillers, including the Agent Pendergast series.
