- Baker & Taylor
FBI agent Vera Taggart teams up with a renowned psychiatrist to investigate a decades-old cold case built around a cult of suicide bombers called the Sons of Elijah who appear to be active again after bombing a crowded Chicago restaurant. - Baker & Taylor
Special Agent Vera Taggart walked away from a promising career as an artist to join the FBI, and she impresses her new colleagues with her eerie ability to divine conclusions from the grisliest crime scenes. Taggart's first assignment is a decades-old cold case centered on a cult of suicide bombers known as the Sons of Elijah who believe they've been reborn hundreds of times, going back centuries. It seems like a low-risk assignment until a bomb tears apart a crowded Chicago restaurant. The Sons of Elijah have returned -- and now it's up to Taggart to stop their modern-day reign of terror. Taggart's investigation begins with Dr. Seth Jacobson, a renowned psychiatrist who claims to help people remember past lives through hypnotherapy. Jacobson had treatedtwo of the Sons of Elijah's founders before they'd gone on to commit a series of horrific murders. Desperate to understand how these ordinary patients could have taken such a violent path, Taggart agrees to undergo similar treatment with Jacobson. Through her hypnosis sessions, Taggart comes to suspect the Sons of Elijah are targeting a high-tech government laboratory that could expose the group's greatest secret with a controversial experiment. To save millions of innocent lives, Tag must come to grips with the shocking truth about the cult and her own puzzling role in its timeless mission. The fate of humanity rests on her ability to determine which threats are real and which exist only in her mind -- and to decide whose side she's really fighting for. - Random House, Inc.
