#1 New York Times bestselling authors Preston & Child return in the latest installment of the bestselling series featuring renowned archaeologist Nora Kelly and FBI Agent Corrie Swanson, who investigate a mystery so enigmatic it may have no solution. In 2008, nine mountaineers failed to return from a winter backpacking trip in the New Mexico mountains. At their final campsite, searchers found a bizarre scene: something had appeared at the door of their tent so terrifying that it impelled them to slash their way out and flee barefoot to certain death in a blizzard. Despite a diligent search, only six bodies were found, two violently crushed and inexplicably missing their eyes. The case, given the code name "Dead Mountain" by the FBI, was never solved. Now, two more bodies from the lost expedition are unexpectedly discovered in a cave, one a grisly suicide. Young FBI Agent Corrie Swanson teams up with archaeologist Nora Kelly to investigate what really happened on that fateful trip fifteen years ago--and to find the ninth victim. But their search awakens a long-slumbering evil, which pursues Corrie and Nora with a vengeance, determined to prevent the final missing corpse from ever coming to light.

V odlehlých končinách v americkém státě Nové Mexiko se v roce 1947 stalo něco, co dodnes nedá spát nejen vědcům, politikům a vojákům, ale ani dychtivým zájemcům o nevysvětlitelné záhady. Archeoložka Nora Kellyová po kategorickém odmítání, které ji dokonce stojí místo v Institutu, souhlasí s tím, že se ujme vykopávek v místě, kde podle všeho dopadl neznámý objekt. Ale co to bylo? Právě to chce zjistit skvěle vybavený tým miliardáře Lucase Tappana, který Noru nakonec přemluví ke spolupráci.Jenže slibně se rozbíhající výzkum brzy naruší podivné události: zmizení významného vědce, objev nečekaných pozůstatků, ale především nález předmětu, který vzbuzuje velké naděje i obavy. Takže se není co divit, že se Ďáblově stole objeví také agenti FBI – a Nora se znovu setkává se svými „starými známými“ Corrie Swansonovou a šerifem Homerem Wattsem. A to je teprve začátek, protože do hry se vzápětí zapojí tajemná vojenská organizace, která chce vykopávky zastavit – za každou cenu.
