Summary
A thrilling new science fiction mystery from the New York Times best-selling author of the Donovan novels
Dr. Timothy Ryan, head of the military psychiatric unit at Grantham Barracks, is meeting a new patient, a woman known as Prisoner Alpha. As she is being transferred, they are attacked by assassins, barely escaping with their lives. One shooter vanishes, leaving behind a dead companion unlike anyone Ryan has ever seen.
But even more baffling is the puzzle of Alpha herself. She speaks in a strange tongue, and doodles in bars, dots, and little pictures like nothing Ryan has ever seen. Is she some sort of savant, or the most cunning spy he's ever met?
Meanwhile, in Egypt, archaeologist Reid Farmer uncovers an 18th Dynasty tomb that shouldn't exist, filled with Mayan epigraphy, mathematics, and materials that didn't exist 3,000 years ago. As a result of this discovery, Reid and forensic anthropologist Kilgore France - along with the sarcophagus they have found - are snatched away to a hidden lab to solve the enigma of a man lost in time.
As dark forces gather, Alpha makes an impossible escape from Grantham. Ryan quickly becomes the prime suspect in her disappearance, but with a team of unique allies, sets out to prove his innocence. Together, they must find Alpha and save Ryan before it is too late.

Totally mad fun
Thoroughly enjoyed this story. Great characters, narration and action scenes. The science follows the very edges of theoretical physics, but that's the job of good fiction. It's good listening.

Surprisingly compelling.
I consume a lot of SciFi, this proved to be a very pleasant surprise. I listened to both books over the course of a week and really enjoyed it. The story is fast paced, entertaining and fun. The performance is pretty damn good too, it loses a star due to switching of narrator. It can be a bit jarring at times. But overall the quality of the narration is very good and a easy listen.
Recommended.

Action packed sci-fi, OH YES!
Go with mind-melting science and strap-in for an all-action romp. Entertaining drama with a great cast of characters the A-Team could only dream of. BRILLIANT 👏 😀

derogatory female characters
why do all the make characters need to desire and comment on the physical appearance of each female.... in the end I gave up on the book.
