In Dan Brown's high-stakes thriller 'Deception Point,' a shocking discovery deep beneath the Arctic ice propels NASA into the spotlight. But when intelligence analyst Rachel Sexton and academic Michael Tolland are sent to verify the find, they uncover a web of deception that could alter the course of history. With assassins on their trail and the truth buried in layers of lies, the duo fights against the clock to reveal a conspiracy with far-reaching implications. From the icy dangers of the Arctic to the ruthless corridors of Washington, D.C., Brown delivers a tale where science meets scandal, and where surviving the cold is the least of one's problems.
