Blasphemy

In Douglas Preston's Blasphemy, the world’s biggest supercollider, locked in an Arizona mountain, was built to unlock the secrets of the very moment of creation: the Big Bang itself. The Torus 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 the Torus 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 the Torus a Satanic attempt, as a powerful televangelist decries, to challenge God Almighty on the very throne of heaven?  Twelve scientists under the leadership of a famed Nobel Laureate 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. The countdown begins...

Award-winning author John Miller's eagerly awaited third novel, Tropical Heat, continues the tradition of page-turning tension and suspense established in his two earlier novels. Tropical Heat is an intricately plotted novel peopled with characters struggling to survive not only a Southern summer heat wave, but also crimes of passion, sexual obsession, and the economic and social upheaval of the mid-1950's. When an army officer is found dead in the small Virginia town of Hopewell, it sets in motion a sequence of events that will forever change the life of Sheriff A. G. Farrell. A. G.'s investigation is hampered from the start by a strangely hostile provost marshal from the murdered captain's base, and by the captain's enigmatic widow, Theresa Fitzgerald, whose beauty, like the terrible heatwave, leaves civilians and soldiers alike gasping for relief. When a thin thread ties together the otherwise unsuspicious deaths of four young women over the past four years, A. G. struggles to retain his sense of objectivity and propriety as sexual tension grows between Theresa and himself, and he must face down the provost marshal whose rush to judgment may get the wrong man hung for murder. As in his two previous novels, which critics compared favorably to the work of such authors as Tim O'Brien, John Sanford, Patricia Cornwell, and James Lee Burke, Miller has created a lead character, Sheriff A. G. Farrell, whose intelligence, independence, and whimsical nature will captivate even the most discriminating and demanding readers.
