Publisher's summary

New York Times best-selling author James Rollins takes you to the edge of modern medicine, genetics, and technology, revealing the next evolutionary leap forward: Immortality - a future conceived through the monstrous ingenuity of man....

Galilee, 1025. A cunning Templar knight uncovers a holy treasure: the Bachal Isu - the staff of Jesus Christ - a priceless icon that holds a mysterious and terrifying power that will forever change humanity if unleashed.

A millennium later, Somali pirates hijack a yacht off the coast off the Horn of Africa, kidnapping a young pregnant American woman and brutally killing her husband. Painter Crowe and his SIGMA team are enlisted for the top secret rescue mission. The kidnapped woman is Amanda Gant-Bennett, the daughter of U.S. President James Gant. Crowe is more than a little suspicious that the kidnapping masks a far more nefarious plot.

In the field, Commander Gray Pierce leads his small team of operatives into the treacherous African jungle to find the missing woman. But what should be a straightforward rescue turns into a fiery ambush and a deadly act of betrayal. As Commander Pierce and his team discover, the hostage is a pawn in a shattering act of terrorism with dark and shocking repercussions. And the danger is only beginning....

the blood line is cold indeed

Again I was not disappointed by Rollins. This was his usual page turner, and continued development of the relationship between the main characters is a continued delight. I am looking forward to the next book in the series!

James Rollins has a tempo

If you could sum up Bloodline in three words, what would they be?

Action, Developed Characters

What was one of the most memorable moments of Bloodline?

The sinking Island.

Which character ??? as performed by Peter Jay Fernandez ??? was your favorite?

I liked that Rollins introduced a new character that has potential to show up in future novels. The fact that the current characters are well developed keeps the reader interested and waiting for the next installment.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

No extreme reactions, just a very fast paced book.

Any additional comments?

The recipe works with this series, and I liked the new characters. It will be interesting to see where he takes this next. Possibly has a spin off character that could carry its own series, maybe.

Might lose some sleep

James Rollins is a masterful story teller. I stayed up til 4 am listening.

Another great Sigma Force book!

I read all of the Sigma Force books and this is another one I can highly recommend. The story was fast-paced and there were several parts that stretched my imagination with the images and action described in the story. The narrator/performer was also excellent and easy on the ears.

keeps sigma story going.

Very well written. This story keeps the Sigma moving forward in an exciting way.
Two new characters are brought in and two love stories bloom.

WOW!

Great continuation from the last book! edge-of-your-seat excitement! Can't wait to read the next one!

Very much loved the book as well very entertaining performance. Really enjoyed hearing of the dog Kane and his roll which was fascinating.

The best of the Sigma Force Series

I debated whether I wanted to listen to any more of the Sigma Force novels. I love the characters, but the last few were just okay. This one however did not disappoint!!! I'd rank it with the Da Vinci Code in story telling. I loved it, loved it, loved it.
