The #1 New York Times bestselling author Iris Johansen teams up once again with her Edgar award-winning son Roy to bring us a new heart-pounding thriller involving the search for a mysterious Atlantean city

In Shadow Zone, while mapping the ancient underwater city of Marinth in the Atlantic Ocean, submersible designer Hannah Bryson makes a shocking discovery: she may have finally uncovered the truth about the once-glorious city's mysterious demise. Long ago it was a thriving metropolis bursting with culture and life-Marinth's sudden disappearance has plagued scientists for years. But now, with her unexpected new findings, Hannah realizes that the ancient city's explosive secret could have dire consequences for the modern-day world.

But Hannah isn't the only one who realizes it. When her key artifact is hijacked en route to a research lab, she is thrust into an adventure in which she must match wits against a terrifying enemy who will kill anyone who stands in his way. And when Hannah becomes his target, she knows that her best hope for survival lies with Kirov, a mysterious and deadly man from her past. Together they will race to unravel Marinth's last great secret in order to prevent a catastrophe of global proportions. Before the lethal game is over, however, Hannah will realize that no one is above suspicion.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

Deep below the Atlantic Ocean, guarded by hundreds of dolphins, lie the astonishing remains of an Atlantis-like lost city called Marinth. Its disappearance has confounded scientists for years--until now. Marine architect Hannah Bryson has unearthed a legendary artifact that might hold the key to unlocking the city's long-buried secrets. But Hannah's discovery could have dire consequences for the modern-day world--and there are some people who will do anything to keep the truth about Marinth hidden...

"an adrenalin-acceleratingtale of a high-stakes, high-seas conspiracy."--"Booklist"

When the artifact is hijacked, Hannah stands alone between a power-hungry enemy and widespread destruction. Willing to form whatever alliance is necessary to regain control of this potentially world-changing weapon, Hannah joins forces with Nicholas Kirov, a loose cannon from her past who is now her best hope for survival. Together they will race to unravel Marinth's last great secret...and before the lethal game is over, Hannah will realize that nothing and no one is what she expected--not even the dolphins, who know so much more than anyone could imagine...

"A sexy thriller peppered with enough science and mysticism
to make any beach seem a little more exotic."--"Kirkus Reviews"
