Résumé:A remote military research station in utah sends out a frantic distress call, ending with a chilling final command: kill us all! personnel from the neighbouring base rush in to discover everyone already dead - and not just the scientists, but every living thing for 50 square miles has been annihilated. The land is entirely sterile - and the blight is spreading.to halt the inevitable, commander gray pierce and sigma must unravel a threat that rises out of the distant past, to a time when antarctica was green and all life on earth balanced upon the blade of a knife. Following clues from an ancient map rescued from the lost library of alexandria, sigma will discover the truth about an ancient continent, about a new form of death buried under miles of ice. From millennia-old secrets out of the frozen past to mysteries buried deep in the darkest jungles of today, sigma will face its greatest challenge to date: stopping the coming extinction of mankind. But is it already too late?]
