The Devil Colony

By James Rollins

P769

Deep in the Rocky Mountains, a gruesome discovery is made: hundred of mummified bodies, along with gold plates inscribed with an unfathomable script. During a riot at the dig site, an anthropologist dies horribly, burned to ashes in a fiery explosion in plain view of television cameras. All evidence points to a radical group of Native Americans, including one agitator, a teenage firebrand who escapes with a vital clue to the murder and calls on the one person who might help — her uncle, painter Crowe, Director of Sigma Force. From the volcanic peaks of Iceland to the blistering deserts of the American Southwest, from the gold vaults of Fort Knox to the bubbling geysers of Yellowstone, Painter joins forces with Commander Gray Pierce to penetrate the shadowy heart of a dark cabal, one that has been manipulating American history since the founding of the 13 colonies.

This question is what faces former Justice Department operative Cotton Malone in his latest adventure. Along the way, a secret cipher originally possessed by Thomas Jefferson is broken, unravels a mystery concocted by Andrew Jackson, and unearth a centuries-old document forged by the Founding Fathers themselves.
