Extinction. Wenn das Böse erwacht

You have awakened something evil. And now it will hunt you down... In the thriller "Extinction," "Relic" meets "Jurassic Park" - bestselling author Douglas Preston delivers a cinematic thrill ride of the highest order! Deep in the Rocky Mountains lies the gigantic resort Erebus. Thanks to cutting-edge genetic engineering, wealthy guests can experience woolly mammoths, massive giant deer, and towering giant sloths in their natural habitat, just as they did thousands of years ago. When the son of a millionaire and his wife are kidnapped and found dead in the wilderness, a group of violent eco-terrorists comes under suspicion. FBI agent Frances Cash and Sheriff James Colcord are tasked with solving the case quickly. But then the murders begin to pile up, and the 400-square-kilometer resort must be evacuated. Amidst the prehistoric flora and fauna, Cash and Colcord are confronted with something evil that seeks not to revive, but to extinguish... Douglas Preston's thriller, in the tradition of Michael Crichton, is based on scientific experiments aimed at reintroducing extinct animal and plant species - such as woolly mammoths and giant flowers from the Pleistocene, 2.5 million years ago.
