Strange murders with similar evidence in different parts of the world have Jason Peters following a trail of unusual rocks to a place in the earth the ancients believed led to misery. For Peters, who works for an organization shrouded in secrecy, this centuries-old site is the key to unlocking not only past crimes, but a horrendous event about to take place.

With little time and a band of Russian criminals on his tail, Peters enlists the help of a brawny Scotsman and a beautiful Italian volcanologist. Together, the three manage to stay a couple of steps ahead of these bizarre terrorists. That is, until time runs out.

Gregg Loomis has done it again. He's created a phenomenal story of fast-paced, globe-trotting terror that has hero Jason Peters constantly on the run for his life. This book is a jewel -- riveting, dynamic and action-packed. The twists and turns make this an absolute page-turner to the very last. I highly recommend GATES OF HADES.
