In this electrifying thriller from #1 New York Times bestselling author James Rollins, Sigma Force races to crack ultimate mystery of the origin of life—a quest that will save mankind . . . or destroy it In Copenhagen, a suspicious bookstore fire propels Commander Gray Pierce on a relentless hunt across four continents – and into a terrifying mystery surrounding horrific experiments once performed in a now-abandoned laboratory buried in a hollowed-out mountain in Poland. In the mountains of Nepal, in a remote monastery, Buddhist monks inexplicably turn to cannibalism and torture – while Painter Crowe, director of Sigma Force, begins to show signs of the same baffling, mind-destroying malady…and Lisa Cummings, a dedicated American doctor, becomes the target of a brutal, clandestine assassin. Now only Gray Pierce and Sigma Force can save a world suddenly in terrible jeopardy. Because a new order is on the rise – an annihilating nightmare growing at the heart of the greatest mystery of all: the origin of life.

James seems to be polishing along the way and so far each book is better then the last. Not significantly better, but each is a step. You can see the series growing. On to the next.
Interesting enough, but a little too much scientific explaining. Also can't stand the way Rollins has his male characters say “good girl” whenever they think a female character makes a good decision. It's weird.
The first time I read this, I read from morning until night and finished it in one day. Now I think ‘How did I have a whole day to just read?!' but I could honestly sit and read the whole thing in one go again if I didn't have things to do! It's totally compelling and very difficult to stop reading when you start.
