Produktbeschreibung
Justin Prescott is about to receive his engineering degree and begin work for the Nutronics Corporation, owned by his godfather and close family friend Nathan Bainbridge-and in which his father, Philip Prescott, has been the top man in R and D. During a Thanksgiving outing to their cabin in Placer County, California, Philip has a car accident, his body is washed by the river, and he is presumed dead. Soon, we learn that Philip has been working on The Prometheus Project, a cyclotron emissions accelerator prototype designed for a petroleum company. But the Prometheus has also been secretly promised to the Pentagon by Nathan, in spite of Philip's objections. In addition, it is coveted by a foreign thief dealing in industrial espionage who has attempted to blackmail Philip and have him help him steal the prototype. Now, it is up to young Justin to discover the deceit pulled on his father as well as to stop both the Nutronics Corporation from building the Prometheus and the foreign thief from stealing it. A tightly-knit thriller with great characters and several plot twists to keep the reader interested. A true page-turner.
