State Of Fear

In Paris; a physicist dies after performing a laboratory experiment for a beautiful visitor. In the jungles of Malaysia; a mysterious buyer purchases deadly cavitation technology; built to his specifications. In Vancouver; a small research submarine is leased for use in the waters off New Guinea. And in Tokyo; an intelligence agent tries to understand what it all means. Thus begins Michael Crichton's exciting and provocative technothriller; State of Fear. Only Michael Crichton's unique ability to blend science fact and pulse-pounding fiction could bring such disparate elements to a heart-stopping conclusion. This is Michael Crichton's most wide-ranging thriller. State of Fear takes the reader from the glaciers of Iceland to the volcanoes of Antarctica; from the Arizona desert to the deadly jungles of the Solomon Islands; from the streets of Paris to the beaches of Los Angeles. The novel races forward; taking the reader on a rollercoaster thrill ride; all the while keeping the brain in high gear. Gripping and thought-provoking; State of Fear is Michael Crichton at his very best.
