The Devil's Light - Softcover

--Doug Stanton, author of "Horse Soldiers "and" In Harm's Way"

"A nuclear bomb is about to explode in a major city whose streets will turn bright with the light of a thousand suns. In this brilliant novel, Richard North Patterson slips into t he minds of the mad and messianic and explores what it will mean for all of us if we allow an apocalyptic nightmare to become tomorrow's history-bending reality.

THE DEVIL'S LIGHT is more than the provocative ruminations of a master story teller. It is a powerful call to action-lest we find ourselves sifting through the radiated wreckage of a truth told too late.

Masterful and illuminating, THE DEVIL'S LIGHT is Richard North Patterson at his best. You will not want, or be able to, put this story down. It is tomorrow's catastrophe riding on the 'gleaming wings of science.'"

--William S. Cohen, former Secretary of Defense

""The Devil's Light" will grab you from the very first page and never let go. Patterson's amazing storytelling is made all the better by his emotionally complex characters. I was intrigued."

-Kathy Reichs, #1 New York Times best-selling author of "206 Bones"

"Impossible to dismiss as mere fiction, THE DEVIL'S LIGHT is a terrifying vision of what very well could bring down our world as we know it. With its real-life spies locked in a deathly struggle, this thrillingly told novel is all too real."

--Robert Baer, former CIA field officer and "New York Times" bestselling author
