In this gripping thriller, a scientific expedition in Antarctica stops for a live news feed. As the CNN journalist Gracie Logan begins her report, a massive, shimmering sphere of light suddenly appears in the sky, enveloping the ship in luminous white light before disappearing as mysteriously as it arrived--the entire event witnessed by an incredulous world audience. Meanwhile, a monk in Egypt experiences visions that seemed connected, and back in Boston, Matt Sherwood learns that his brother's death may have been actually murder related to this erupting worldwide controversy over the meaning of this "sign" in the sky.

This was a mediocre thriller in which everything was easy to figure out. This character will be killed, that one will be gravely injured but will pull through, etc. That's OK if all you want is a quick read, but it leaves a lot to be desired.
Also, this book was very poorly edited and proofread. I found many typos throughout the text, such as “We have to leave know!” In addition, although it is never stated outright, this story obviously takes place in December 2009 (indicated by references to recent events). Yet, one character states, “We put a man on the moon fifty years ago.” According to my calculations, that would be forty years ago in 1969. I get the feeling that this book was rushed into publication without much attention to editing and proofreading.
