The world may be on the brink of disaster, and its an entirely man-made danger. Billionaire philanthropist George Morton has agreed to fund a grant that will enable the National Environmental Resources Fund to publicize what they perceive as a threat to the welfare of the earth. Mortons young lawyer, Peter Evans, knows hes been having second thoughts lately. In fact, hes noticed that Mortons been acting strange ever since he met enigmatic M.I.T. professor John Kenner. Peter doesnt know what to make of Kenner, nor does Mortons beautiful assistant, Sarah. She knows somethings amiss, though she cant quite figure out what it is, and so she and Peter join forces. Neither could possibly imagine what is about to happen, or how it will change their livesand possibly the planetforever. Alive with the gripping suspense and authenticity that are Michael Crichtons trademark, State of Fear is a breathtaking thrill ride you wont soon forget.
