Perun's Hammer - Ian Heller

One of the best books that I've ever read! \n -Kent Rominger, former Space Shuttle Commander / NASA Chief of the Astronaut Office\n What if you received a video showing exactly what happened to Amelia Earhart? \nAnd then similar videos of the Battle of the Little Bighorn and the Tulsa Race Massacre? What would you do if historians and experts verified every detail, and none of the videos showed traces of CGI? \n \nIf you're Rich Penton, lead reporter at the investigative news show, RECON, you'd try to figure out who made the videos, who sent them to you and what you're supposed to do about them. The only thing you'd know for sure is that the existence of the videos is absolutely impossible. \n \nFor humans. \n \nBut when the RECON team receives a video showing Chicago destroyed by an asteroid in the near future, they decide they'd better take it seriously. That's when they feel the full force of the U.S. military and intelligence agencies, which clearly don't want RECON involved in whatever mess this is, and the Russians send an assassin to ensure that anybody who tries to broadcast the videos winds up dead. \n \nPerun's Hammer blends exciting and contemporary themes: AI, foreign intrigue, murder, historical mysteries, hazardous asteroids, undercover agents, a bizarre cult, and a mysterious intelligence that seems to be able to see through time. \n
