Someone with too much money and lots of guns has stolen the world's oldest human DNA.Recruited out of retirement to solve the heist, Defense Intelligence operative Cas Fielding suspects the answer to the mystery lies inside an igneous shard that fell to Earth thousands of years ago.Problem is, this rock of ages happens to be Islam's most revered relic.The mission is best suited for the insane or suicidal, but Fielding - an old Army Ranger and the only Westerner alive to have infiltrated the radical Bedouin tribes - agrees to track down the icon before the Saudi royal family can be publicly disgraced and toppled.Yet what Fielding finds on his twisting trail of clues would leave even the most hardened veteran of the spook business shaken. Teaming up with a sultry but unstable Ivy League geophysicist, he descends deeper and deeper into the global underground meteorite market, only to find himself caught between a holy rock and an Apocalyptic hard place.
