Book description
Think of the greatest possible scientific discovery . . . they made one
even greater. The world's biggest supercollider, hidden in an Arizona
mountain, was built to unlock the secrets of the very moment of
creation: the Big Bang itself. Isabella is the most expensive machine
ever created by humankind, run by the world's most powerful
supercomputer. It is the brainchild of Nobel Laureate William North
Hazelius. Will Isabella divulge the mysteries of the creation of the
universe? Or will it, as some predict, suck the earth into a mini black
hole? Or is Isabella a Satanic attempt, as a powerful televangelist
decries, to challenge God Almighty on the very throne of heaven? Twelve
scientists are sent to the remote mountain to turn it on . . . and what
they discover must be hidden from the world at all costs. Wyman Ford,
ex-monk and CIA operative, is tapped to wrest from the team their
secret, a secret that will either destroy the world . . . or save it.
