Best Selling Books by Scott Sigler

Você já teve um sonho que jurou ser real? Ou até mesmo aquela sensação de déjà-vu ao passar por um lugar em que com certeza nunca esteve? Agora imagine se esse local for uma cena de crime e você, um detetive de homicídios? Para piorar: e se, nos sonhos, você fosse o próprio assassino para, num piscar de olhos, acordar e estar no mundo real com uma pessoa morta aos seus pés? É exatamente essa a situação em que Bryan Clauser, um policial de San Francisco, se encontra. Como aconteceria a qualquer um de nós, ele pensa que está perdendo a cabeça — mas os pesadelos, infelizmente, são muito reais. Junto com o parceiro Pookie Chang e a ex-namorada Robin, Bryan começa a investigar os crimes que, de alguma forma, ele vê em primeiríssima mão, no momento em que estão sendo cometidos. A questão que não quer calar é: quem está cometendo esses assassinatos? Quando as investigações levam Bryan e Pookie a um adolescente chamado Rex Deprovdechuck e ao fato de que todas as vítimas mortas faziam bullying com ele no colégio, os dois acham que o mistério está praticamente no fim — e que Bryan será inocentado. No entanto, quanto mais o detetive explora esse mistério, mais ele descobre sobre uma conspiração e um estranho culto que opera em San Francisco praticamente desde a sua fundação. Existe uma cidade viva e faminta nas sombras — e ela pode colocar todo o mundo em risco.

Perry non è l’unico contagiato, e le persone che ospitano i parassiti, molecole d’ignota provenienza, cedono a una folle paranoia che le conduce a scorgere ovunque macchinose cospirazioni, fino a portarle in poco tempo all’omicidio o al suicidio. Gli Stati Uniti hanno forse subìto un attacco batteriologico che rischia di condurre la nazione all’autodistruzione? La CIA, allertata dall’epidemiologa Margaret Montoya, indaga segretamente, ma ha bisogno di un sopravvissuto per osservare da vicino questa strana e nuova malattia. Il compito di trovarlo spetta all’agente Dew Phillips. Perry è la preda perfetta per Phillips, e mentre il primo ingaggia una furiosa lotta contro i parassiti ormai in grado di interagire con il suo cervello, il secondo inizia a capire con sempre più chiarezza quale sia il loro mistero. Perry è nelle mani della CIA, ma questo non è sufficiente a proteggerlo: i parassiti, quasi fossero esseri senzienti, si rivelano una minaccia per l’intera umanità, e a Phillips non resta che fermarli per cercare di salvare il mondo in cui vive.

Dopo atroci sofferenze, Perry Dawsey, ex giocatore di football alcolizzato, guarisce dall’infezione aliena grazie alla dottoressa Montoya. Tuttavia è ancora in grado di percepire le voci dei triangoli e decide di dare la caccia agli altri infettati per ucciderli. Dopo un violento scontro con l’agente della Cia Dew Phillips, accetta di collaborare con la squadra della Margomobile. Nel frattempo il satellite alieno, l’Orbital, sgancia dal cielo una nuova serie di spore che controllano direttamente il cervello degli ospiti. La famiglia Jewell, composta dalla piccola Chelsea e dai suoi genitori, viene infettata dal morbo: la bambina diventa il capo incontrastato delle manovre aliene e vuole aiutare le ‘bamboline’ a costruire la loro porta. Perché il colonnello Charlie Ogden e la compagnia Raggi X riescono a percepire i pensieri di Chelsea? Perché si dirigono a Detroit contravvenendo agli ordini del presidente degli Stati Uniti? L’agente Dew e la compagnia dell’esercito che non è stata contagiata hanno poco tempo per salvare l’umanità, dalla distruzione totale... e proprio quando l’infezione sembra del tutto debellata, si fa strada una nuova minaccia sotto le vesti di uno strano contenitore, progettato per resistere a qualunque incidente.

"FM 92,5 - Hörertelefon. Worüber möchten Sie sprechen?" - "Ich habe sie alle umgebracht." Die Epidemologin Margaret Montoya wird bei der CIA mit einer seltsamen Krankheit konfrontiert. Aufgrund eines unbekannten Erregers verwandeln sich normale Menschen in Psychopathen, die ihre Familien töten und sich selbst auf grauenerregende Weise umbringen. Montoya und die US-Regierung glauben zunächst an eine terroristische Attacke mit einer neuartigen Biowaffe, doch die Wahrheit ist noch viel alarmierender ...

The only way out is to die... Few know the warship''s actual name. Fewer still know what it really is. And almost no one knows of its unique ability, an ability that could tilt the balance of power if not outright win the war. But everyone has heard the rumors. Rumors about the worst place the Planetary Union Fleet can send you. Rumors of a ship with an eighty percent crew mortality rate. In these hushed, fearful whispers, the ship does have a name. People call it "the Crypt," because those aboard are as good as dead. The PUV James Keeling can do something no other vessel in existence can do - slip into another dimension, travel undetected, then re-emerge onto our plane and surprise enemy targets. But the thing that makes the Crypt unique also makes it a nightmare for those onboard; interdimensional travel causes hallucinations, violent behavior, and psychotic breakdowns. Keeling could be the Union''s greatest weapon, a game-changing asset that can defeat the bloodthirsty zealots of the Purist Nation, the Union''s mortal enemy. If, that is, the brass can find the right crew. But with those dark rumors traveling at lightspeed throughout Fleet, sailors with connections, with favors to call in, or those with careers on the rise pull any string they can to avoid being assigned to the Crypt. The brightest and best shield themselves from this top-secret craft, yet the brass must send it out on critical missions. As the war drags on and casualties pile up, Fleet crews the ship by assigning the worst of the worst. If you are convicted of assault, fraud, cowardice, theft, rape, murder - or you cross the wrong Admiral - you may find yourself aboard the Crypt. Most are given a choice: serve a two-year stint on the Keeling and have your record expunged, or be executed for your crimes. Welcome to the PUV James Keeling, where the only way out... is to die.

Wat gebeurt er wanneer een wetenschappelijk experiment door overmoed, hebzucht en geestelijke instabiliteit ver voorbij alle grenzen van de redelijkheid wordt gedreven? Xenotransplantatie is dé oplossing voor het wereldwijde tekort aan donororganen, maar hoe zorg je ervoor dat de organen genetisch passen, zodat ze niet worden afgestoten?

Besmetting... hoe bestrijd je de vijand als die binnen in je zit?
