more The author is better known for collaborations with Douglas Preston and their agent Pendergast. In this story, an ex naval doctor is called in to an oil rig. Unbeknownst to him, 200 days earlier the oil rig had made a mysterious find of what is perhaps an ancient civilisation. The US Government then put in place a high tech top secret installation at the bottom of oil rig to continue secret excavations. Readers can dispense with deep character development, as the story is just intended as a techno thriller from start to finish. Not overly gripping but entertaining all the same.
